Research by staff June 16, 2016

A new ranking released this week by Wallethub named Sarasota as Florida's top city "for finding a job." Analysts compared 130 Florida cities using 16 relevant metrics that speak to two key factors important to job seekers: the local job market and the area’s socioeconomic environment. Each metric was graded on a 100-point scale, with the weighted sum of each city’s individual metric scores combined into its overall score, which Wallethub used for its final rankings. Jacksonville Beach and Pensacola ranked just below Sarasota in the listing.
