PHOENIX — Three Arizona cities are reportedly among the nation’s best places for employment opportunities.
According to Wallet Hub, Mesa (ninth), Phoenix (14) and Tucson (54) were all among the best places for job seekers.
As an advocate for the health of consumers’ wallets, WalletHub decided to analyze the relative employment opportunities in the 60 largest U.S. cities in order to give people a sense of where on the map the strongest job markets and greatest prospects for long-term financial security can be found. We did so using 13 unique metrics, ranging from job openings per capita and industry variety to cost of living and the prevalence of employer-provided health benefits.
Overall, the best city for job seekers is Fort Worth, Texas, followed by Washington, D.C., Tampa, Fla., Arlington, Texas and Dallas, Texas, respectively.
