DALLAS—Dallas has one of the most diverse employer bases in the country, according to new research from JLL.

Based on data compiled from Moody's Analytics and the Dallas Business Journal, JLL found that the city rated an 80 (on a 1 to 100 scale), which means the market is not based solely or disproportionately on one particular industry/employer. And as a result of this diversification, employment volatility rates a 93, meaning the metro is one of the most stable in the country.

The top employer is Walmart with approximately 34,700 employees locally. Bank of America and Carlson Restaurants follow behind with 20,000 employees each. Then comes Texas Health Resources (19,200), Baylor Health Care (16,900), AT&T (15,800) and JPMorgan Chase (14,500).
