Dallas-Fort Worth is experiencing good times economically, according to the latest On Numbers Economic Index which ranked DFW as the third most-vital of the nation’s 102 major metropolitan areas.
On Numbers, a feature of American City Business Journals, ranked Austin as No. 1 and Provo, Utah, as No. 2 on the Index. Oklahoma City trailed DFW in the fourth position.
According to On Numbers, DFW got its high ranking because of a mixture of positive indicators. DFW is one of four markets with jobless rates of 6 percent or less and employment has risen more than 2 percent in the past year, On Numbers said. Home values have increased since 2008 in the area.
