"AIA component leaders report that business conditions remain relatively strong in their regions in 2007, despite some economic upheaval. Many components also rated conditions as similar to last year, which tends to mean that regions that were strong last year remain strong, while those that were weak continue to struggle. Demand for architects of all skill levels remains high, and regions that are prospering have greater need for new hires. Component leaders report a fairly large decline in business conditions in the residential sector, but the commercial/industrial and institutional sectors remain solid."
