I'm a little suprised that WA is on this list. Our state unemployment rate has been consistently higher than the national avg. Right now we're at 34 out of 51 in UE rate.
I guess with WA probably it depends on what sector of the economy you're talking about.
As much as I love North Carolina how the heck are we in the top ten destinations for jobs? What in the world is the writer smoking? We have one of the higher unemployment rates in the country and there is a problem of people just randomly migrating here w/ no job expecting it not to be a problem and then having problems because jobs are hard to come by.
Completely agree. I suffered as a telemarketer in Charlotte for three years before the stress and health problems that the job was inflicting on me became so great I had to leave and thus leave Charlotte. I submitted hundreds upon hundreds of resumes over that three year period. I only had a handful of interviews and no offers. NC is definitely not the place to relocate for work unless you have a specific skill that's in high demand.
Sorry the list is BS....Florida is #1? I'm not sure where in Florida but in the Tampa Bay area unemployment is upwards of 9%...companies are hesitate to move here because of the education level of the workforce. Maybe in healthcare but I just don't see it.

This list looks more like circa 2005 or so. In 2008, the landscape completely changed and some of these states are some of the places that crashed the hardest.
The average State income tax in the US is about 2,500 which is deductible on Fed income tax returns, but hey, stick with your false equivalency if it helps you cope.
SO what- it is deductible on fed tax? It is still another 10-20% out of your take home.
Stick with your uneducated analysis if it helps you hate on those who do not want to become union thugs
Washington is the only state I would go to on that list.
Exactly what type of liveable wage job can be found in South Carolina???
Well considering you can buy a 4 bedroom 3 bath 2800 sq ft home in South Carolina for the same price as a 2 bedroom loft (MAYBE) in Seattle.
and incase you did not know North Carolina has the research triangle along with Charlotte which is one of the banking capitals of the eastern seaboard.
Who in their right mind picks up and moves to a state without already having a job waiting for them when they get there?
Lots of people do.
