But where will the new jobs be located? Which places will grow the most jobs and, conversely, which will see the biggest job losses?
To get at this, my Martin Prosperity Institute (MPI) team applied the detailed employment projections of the BLS to U.S. metro regions. The BLS forecasts job trends across 22 major occupational groups which include more than 822 specific job categories for the decade 2008 through 2018. My MPI team used these BLS national forecasts to generate similar estimates for each of America’s 392 metro regions. Essentially, we used the BLS overall estimations to predict job growth in each region based on its current mix of jobs.
