Zillow: Atlanta No. 1 With a Good Job Market and Affordable Housing

Job creation in affordable Atlanta has landed The Big Peach in Zillow’s sweet spot

June 2, 2015

Real estate database Zillow analyzed numbers for job and wage growth along with housing costs in the first quarter of 2015 to find which cities excel in both.

Their numbers identified Atlanta as the city in the “sweet spot,” the Wall Street Journal reports, as more jobs are created in this affordable market.

Meanwhile, declining oil prices have edged Houston and Dallas out of the sweet spot as affordability slips.
