Texas City Lands in Top 10 on ‘Best Places to Find a Job’ List

Of all the resolutions floating around out there, I would say finding a new job is one of the most popular.

I feel that January is a popular time to look for a new job. I have no evidence to support this, but it is a time of new beginnings. After evaluating how the prior year went it seems only natural that if you were unhappy in your last job, you'd be looking for something new right about now.

There are a lot of factors that go into finding a new job and where we live could have a big influence on being hired.

WalletHub took at look at this recently when they complied a list of "2018's Best Places to Find a Job." In their study, they looked specifically at factors that effect job-market strength like opportunities, unemployment, average starting salary, potential for growth, and more. With that information they have placed Plano, Texas at number six on the list.

Plano wasn't the only Texas city to score high, but it's the sole city with a top 10 mark. There were two factors that contribute to job-market strength that Plano found success in. Aside from a number four ranking in "Most Affordable Housing", Plano also ranked number three in "Highest Median Annual Income." Not too shabby!
