The economic landscape of Collier County is quite different from much of the country. Due to the prosperous tourism market and the number of part-time residents, the local economy experiences a strong positive seasonal factor during winter months. Employment and sales figures increase sharply with increases in tourists and part-time residents.

The seasonality has, however, become less prominent in recent years as more part-time residents are making Collier County their full-time home. This newfound stability has spurred significant business growth in the area.

Collier County continues to have one of the strongest economies in the State of Florida, with one of the lowest unemployment rates, highest rates of job creation, and average wages in the top quartile of all Florida counties.
