Cities ready for Job Growth 2011
Hi ya, So glad to have you back again. Do leave a comment for what you want to see. Thanks for coming.
Job Growth Coming to American Cities
Top 5 Picks
Earlier this month a Good Morning America report highlighted 5 American cities poised for dramatic job growth in 2011. They are Portland, Houston, Minneapolis, Washington, DC and Orlando.
Each city has different factors driving job growth. For Portland it is the health of the technology sector lead by Intel. While Houston lost big during the Great Recession, it is poised for job growth in the energy sector with oil prices skyrocketing again. Minneapolis shows indications of taking on growth in small parts manufacturing and in retail. The Mall of America in Minneapolis is currently undergoing an expansion.
The Washington, DC beltline is home to many business services that prefer to be in close proximity to the halls of government. While the government sector may not grow, the services that feed it are poised for another growth spurt, and many of those companies are headquartered in or near Washington.
Orlando began to see an upsurge in tourism during 2010, and that improvement in Orlando’s main business is expected to continue in 2011. This is bringing more people into the area for jobs.

HUD Funds for Unemployed Homeowners of course not there.
On October 1st Congress approved $1 billion for the Emergency Homeowners Loan Program (EHLP) under the Dodd-Frank bill. According to Senator Bob Casey (D-Pennsylvania) the program has yet to distribute any of the funds to the 32 states plus Puerto Rico that are eligible to receive the assistance for their unemployed homeowners.
