A new report from Cushman & Wakefield, a company dealing in commercial real estate services, recognized DFW as the job-growth leader among almost three dozen metro areas for 2009 to 2018.
Cushman & Wakefield examined job growth change by percentage for each of the 35 metro areas, as well as number of jobs added, and averaged the two to arrive at an overall score. From the Great Recession’s end in 2009 to 2018, DFW experienced a 25.7 growth rate, which and an additional 754,200 jobs for an overall score of 5. For this assessment, lower is better.
Jessica Heer, leader of the Dallas Regional Chamber’s “Say Yes to Dallas” campaign, has pointed out that Dallas has been successful in attracting young talent as well as new businesses due to its affordability and the availability of employment here. For the moment, DFW’s job growth appears likely to continue for the near future, which is following closely on the heels of the area’s ongoing population boom.
