Houston may be know as Space City, but this week it has another new title: the job-creation capital of the United States.
Houston added 65,600 nonfarm jobs between August 2010 and the same month this year, the biggest raw gain by any of the country's 100 major metros, according to statistics released Wednesday by the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics.
The Business Journal's On Numbers, a division of American City Business Journals, has pulled together an interactive database of the latest data that shows that 77 of 100 markets posted job gains during that period while 23 saw employment shrinkage.
