As President-elect Donald Trump prepares to take office, he is set to inherit an economy that is showing signs of strength and potential for growth.

President Joe Biden's administration has laid the groundwork for a range of infrastructure projects across the country, including a computer chip plant in Arizona, an electric vehicle factory in Georgia, and the modernization of highways like I-375 in Michigan.
