#1 Fargo, ND

Fargo might not be your top-pick for future city, but jobs are growing at a high rate meaning employers are having issues finding people. But Fargo’s a little cold and barren, so before you go you’ll need to get some snow boots.

#6 San Francisco, CA

San Francisco is bursting with high paying job vacancies that are almost $15,000 annually over the national median wage. This vibrant city is a great hub for technology, but due to its popular location and vibrancy, it’s a tad bit expensive. So, make sure you counter offer!
