But when it comes to the country’s hottest job market, you’re not going to find it in the top inbound states. According to The Wall Street Journal, the city with the fastest growing job market can be found in northern Utah.
“Salt Lake City has top-notch ski resorts, challenging bike trails and breathtaking views of the Wasatch Mountains. It also is home to the hottest job market in the U.S.,” the Journal reports. “As the pandemic raged through the U.S. in 2020, no metropolitan area in the country expanded the size of its labor force more on a percentage basis than Utah’s capital. It also had the lowest average unemployment rate and the highest share of people working or looking for jobs.”
