Austin No. 3 for most jobs gained since recession
Austin is among 13 of the nation’s 100 biggest labor markets to have regained all of the jobs that were lost during the recession.
The Capital City is ranked the third most prosperous metro during that five-year span adding 37,900 private-sector jobs, according to the Business Journals’ On Numbers, which used preliminary data from the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics data to compare 2011 private-sector employment levels against officials figures for 2006, the last full year before the recession’s onset.
