Saturday Stats: San Jose is the #2 Job Market in the US for Recent Grads

The Atlantic has crunched some numbers to find what the best job markets are for recent college graduates. They took the largest 100 metros in the US and looked at the following five factors:

• The percent change in jobs requiring post-secondary education from 2010 to 2014. 
• The percentage of 25-34 year olds who hold these positions.
• The average wages for these jobs requiring post-secondary education.
• The concentration of these jobs based on their "location quotient," or LQ for short.
• The share of new jobs requiring post-secondary education that can be attributed to local economic conditions or competitiveness.

The San Jose metro crushed it, with a #2 ranking. The SF Metro took the top spot in this one, with New York in 28th. You can see the Top 10 below; head to the source link for the full list.
