TierPoint Greensboro

Greensboro-High Point's economy is built around furniture manufacturing (the High Point Market is the largest furniture trade show in the world), textiles and apparel legacy, logistics (FedEx Mid-Atlantic hub at Piedmont Triad), and a growing tech and aerospace presence. Data centers serve those enterprise tenants — one tracked facility and roughly 300 NAICS 518 jobs (estimated). The metro is a small data center market.

The trades pool is small. Electricians at $58,380 and HVAC technicians at $58,520 sit virtually identical, with HVAC slightly ahead — typical of non-union markets. The 3,530 maintenance workforce earns $47,320. Network admins clear $88,580.

For a trades worker, Greensboro-High Point is a low-cost market with steady demand from furniture, logistics, and the broader Piedmont Triad's manufacturing base. HVAC technicians benefit from the equivalent wage with shorter credentialing time. The data center component is small but the broader commercial work is steady.
