In recent month’s we’ve seen Texas cities earn places on honor on many Top Ten Lists: Top Ten Fittest Cities, Top Ten Places to Retire, even Top Ten Cities for Graduates Today, four Texas cities have made another Top Ten list: Top Ten in Job Growth.

According to the Houston Business Journal, Houston, Dallas, Austin and San Antonio registered the nation’s strongest employment gains during the past five years. Houston ranked No. 1 with 129,800 jobs created. Dallas and Austin followed at No. 2, and No. 3 with 71,300 and 56,100 new jobs, respectively. And San Antonio followed-up at No. 4 with 32,600 new jobs.

You can be sure it says something to have four Texas cities ranking in the top five. Looks like the saying, “everything’s bigger in Texas” has a great deal of truth behind it.
