Spoken segment from a YouTube video (created/uploaded by Wayne Courreges III, CPM®) analyzing aggregate job growth from the pre-pandemic period to the present. The speaker explains a chart where blue bars show nominal job additions and red dots show percentage change, argues that post-pandemic growth favored Sunbelt markets with Texas metros (notably Austin and San Antonio) among the strongest performers, and links that growth to migration from higher-cost areas.

The aggregate growth in jobs pre pandemic to now. And the blue bars just represent the nominal change or the number of jobs added during that period. And then the red dots just represent that percentage change. So post pandemic, you know, Texas markets, like many other high growth Sunbelt markets, were kind of the clear winners coming out of the pandemic. That, that really started a chain reaction of companies and workers, you know, moving at a more high cost of living areas into Sunbelt markets. And most notably Texas, we saw a lot of growth within our four metros within the state. You know, Austin, San Antonio saw relatively high level percentage growth of jobs added during those four years.
