Best cities to score your dream job

If you're seeking a better-paying job, the job you wind up with might depend on where you live. GOBankingRates took a multipronged approach to determine the best cities for the best jobs available right now.

First, we looked at U.S. News & World Report's list of "Best Jobs" and examined the best jobs in each industry category with at least 10,000 projected new jobs over the next decade. Next, we looked at job listings on ZipRecruiter to determine which cities had the highest average salaries for each job, and of the top three cities, which had the most available job openings.

Methodology: To conduct this study, GOBankingRates sourced its list of "dream jobs" based on U.S. News & World Report's "100 Best Jobs" reporting, taking top jobs by industry category with 10,000 projected jobs as the threshold. Jobs listed by the magazine were then cross-referenced with ZipRecruiter job titles. The three cities with the highest average salary per position were taken as the top cities to score your dream job.
