It’s no secret that the United States is one of the leading economies around the globe. However, the economic situation tends to vary in each of the country’s 50 states, even more so in the cities.

According to a report by the Kenan Institute of Private Enterprise - a group of trade policy experts - there are ten cities in the United States that are distinguished by their rapid growth in 2022.

The classification was given after considering the employment rates, as well as the economic production at the county level in each city; resulting in a list with the ten best cities to work and, therefore, to live.

Unsurprisingly, these cities are home to major tech companies, including Amazon and Microsoft, companies where younger generations are increasingly looking for more work.

  • San Francisco, California
  • Austin, Texas
  • Seattle, Washington
  • Raleigh and Durham, North Carolina
  • Dallas, Texas
  • Denver, Colorado
  • Salt Lake City, Utah
  • Charlotte, North Carolina
  • New Orleans, Louisiana
  • Orlando, Florida

One of the big surprises on the list is Seattle, a city that in recent months has become a leader in clean energy by having various plans to enact new initiatives to have cleaner buildings. In addition to this , Seattle also tops the count of cities where students seek to live after graduation, according to data from Axios-Generation Lab Next Cities Index.
