Finance,

and leasing

This category, where the recession began, is expected to show mostly moderate growth, but its share of the job market - now 6.5 percent with 85,500 jobs - will shrink to 6.37 percent in 2035.

Construction

From its 15-year peak of 5.37 percent of Long Island's total employment in 2005, the category will drop to 4.74 percent by 2035, owing to a current glut of housing now that will grow as retiring baby boomers sell their homes.

Transportation and utilities

This sector's share of jobs will mostly decline. From its 20-year peak of 4.07 percent of jobs in 1990, the sector will fall to 2.25 percent by 2035.

Wholesale trade

This category, which includes wholesalers of durable goods, such as cars and computer equipment, and nondurable goods such as food and fuel, will lose job-market share. In 1990, the sector had 6.17 percent of jobs. That will fall to 4.72 percent in 2035, largely because traffic woes have led companies to move distribution points elsewhere.InformationThis sector, which includes writers, editors and designers in publishing, broadcasting and Internet services, will see a modest growth of jobs on the Island. But its percentage of overall employment will remain in the 2 percent range, with 34,000 in 2035.
