A tradition for seniors in school, looking towards the future is a part of the American way of life. High school seniors imagine what it will be like to graduate and move away to college. While college seniors start to focus on what life after college will entail. Will they get a job? Where will this job be at?
Future college graduates start looking at the map, determining what side of the country they should move to. The West or South cities might not be the best ones to move to, in fact, the best cities for jobs are located in the Midwest and Northeast region of America.
All of these regions have job openings but what makes the Midwest and Northeast prevail is the affordability of housing. It is all good to get a job but if the person can’t afford to live in the city with that job, then it is pointless.
Below is a list of 10 cities in America that are affordable for college graduates to live in and also have job openings available:
Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania
Madison, Wisconsin
Minneapolis-St. Paul, Minnesota
Columbus, Ohio
Nashville, Tennessee
Austin, Texas
Seattle, Washington
Chicago, Illinois
Philadelphia, Pennsylvania
The above cities are listed in no particular order; they are also not the only cities that have job openings available. Future college graduates have to ask themselves what they want most after college to determine what city to live in. If they strictly want a good paying job, then there are cities for that. If they want a city that they can truly be invested in, then they should consider the cities above.
These listed cities are just a few of the many cities that have good job opportunities, were affordable to live in and they also have the same age demographic. Once college is over getting a job is just one step in the future, there are many other steps that are just waiting around the corner. The right city can help start the new adventure off on the right foot.
