NH One Of The Nation's Best Places For Finding A Job, Report Says

If 2019 is the year you’re amping up your job search, where you live might play a big role in determining how successful your search is -- and New Hampshire is one of the best places you could be.

According to an analysis by Zippia, the best state to find a job in 2019 is Iowa. It might seem like bigger states like New York and California are the best to find jobs, but as Zippia explains there is also more competition in the job market.

New Hampshire ranked 8th best nationwide to find a job in 2019.

Zippia used data from the Bureau of Labor Statistics and the American Community Survey to determine the rankings. Each state was ranked for year-over-year improvement in unemployment, current unemployment rank, home-to-income prices and year-over-year income improvements. The ranking for all four categories was averaged and the states with the lower rankings ranked as the top states for jobs, Zippia says.

Below are the top 10 states for jobs:

1. Iowa
2. Minnesota
3. Virginia
4. Nebraska
5. Oklahoma
6. South Dakota
7. Missouri
8. New Hampshire
9. North Carolina
10. Georgia
