Yes Texas has constantly been receiving positive news regarding its economy

I am still figuring out what I like but I really think I'd like to get into healthcare-specifically, healthcare admin/finance or public health. I am not looking to be a nurse or Dr, etc. I will probably for a Master's or maybe a cert is needed depending on where I go. I know these jobs are everywhere, just unsure of where to start out and move up. Obviously, in a perfect world, I'd want the company to pay for my schooling or at least some of it

Denver has jobs but they do NOT pay enough to live here. I recommend Texas. Lots of jobs for recent graduates and the cost of living is still extremely low.

If you want to work in in the corporate area of healthcare I think Nashville and Orlando, FL are also doing well in that area. I think...... But my bets are they still aren't as dynamic as the Texas cities though.

North Carolina specifically Raleigh/Durham or Charlotte. Texas in abundance, Denver, DC (but cost of living is nuts) Atlanta.

Atlanta is one of the worst cities for all types of job growth today. Atlanta's unemployment rate is 2% higher than the American norm. I spent the first half of this year living in Atlanta throwing out probably 100 resumes left and right and only received one interview.

We definitely need to do our part on such a widely viewed forum to warn others of where bad economies are. Atlanta has one of the absolute worst job markets in the country. Charlotte isn't too glossy either.

Atlanta may not be doing as well as say Dallas or Houston, but its still in the South where job growth will never end.

Atlanta is actually a very attractive city minus a few things.
