Fairfield County has placed near the top of a list ranking industrial diversity, a Washington think tank said this week, placing the region in sixth place among 99 other metro areas in the U.S. In a report published on Tuesday, the Brookings Institution gave high marks to the Bridgeport-Stamford-Norwalk metro area for its so-called advanced industries -- the largest of which include aerospace manufacturing, computer systems design and pharmaceutical and medicine manufacturing. "Bridgeport specializes in 14 different advanced industries," said Kenan Fikri , a senior policy analyst at Brookings Institution Metropolitan Policy Program and co-author of "America's Advanced Industries: What They Are, Where They Are, and Why They Matter."
