As Realtors we know how important a role a robust job market plays in driving home sales. So which big cities feature the strongest job markets?
Forbes magazine ranked the top big cities for projected job growth in 2014 based on several factors:
- current growth of employment rates,
- mid-term growth (the average annual rate from 2008-2013);
- long-term trends;
- and a 10-year average.Three of the top-ranking cities are in Texas, while two are in California.
Top 10 cities:
1- San Jose-Sunnyvale-Santa Clara, California,
2- San Francisco-San Mateo-Redwood City, California,
3- Austin-Round Rock-San Marcos, Texas,
4- Raleigh-Cary, North Carolina,
