I can definitely vouce for the Salt Lake City market…I moved here over a year ago and it seems that the job market is hot and the real estate market is even hotter. SLC has experienced unprecendented appreciation in the housing market…although it is definitely cooled down compared to last summer. I think the average appreciation rate here in the valley has been somewhere between 15% and 25%. Pretty good. A lot of west coast money floating around here. Good post, thanks.

I think that the quality of jobs matters
infinitely more than job growth per se.
Out here in Austin, Tex., we indeed are
experiencing high job growth(ranked #20)
but many low-paying ones, including start-ups that may hire just a handful of people.
A very large number are in the service industry, including nightclubs and retaurants. A dishwasher making 6.50/hour is counted as a job with the same weight as a heart surgeon or corp.
executive. Far more indicative of a decent
economy is the per capita income ranking.
High per capita AND job growth is the
only stat that makes sense. Cities like
Phoenix, Tucson, Austin, Tampa and Orlando have an extremely poor paying
job base, very much skewed towards low-end service industry jobs. These cities also
attract low-skilled gypsy relocatees, constantly on the prowl for survival, which
creates a large amount of crime, and blights the landscape with nasty maga-apartment complexes that cater to the same poor, itinerent work force. Cities
like Chicago, Boston, NY, DC, Mini-st.Paul,
DC, and the like, with a long-rooted, well-paying, stable work force are infinitely more viable for who who is looking to relocate to a viable area.
