The 10 Worst US Cities For Finding A Job

But people are still struggling to find jobs in certain cities.

WallHub analyzed the 150 most populated cities in the US to determine the worst (and best) cities to find a job.

Cities were analyzed across two dimensions: "job market" and "socioeconomic environment," which were based off of 16 metrics including opportunities, employment growth, median starting salary, and median annual income (adjusted for cost of living).

Here are the 10 worst cities for finding a job:

10. Newark, NJ

9. Winston-Salem, NC

8. Tucson, AZ

7. Modesto, CA

6. Fresno, CA

5. Memphis, TN

4. Hialeah, FL

3. Detroit, MI

2. Moreno Valley, CA

1. San Bernardino, CA

Additionally, WalletHub put together a map showing all the cities analyzed. The more orange the circle is, the harder it is to find a job in that city. The more blue the circle is, the easier it is to find a job in that city.

You can see below that there is a high concentration of orange bubbles in California, as well as in the southeast US - meaning these cities are worse for finding a job.

On the other hand, many cities in central US are blue - meaning these cities are better for finding a job.
