Charlotte is among the top cities for five-year job growth in the financial services, life sciences, and technology, media and telecom (TMT) sectors, according to a new report from Colliers.

The firm turns an eye toward emerging cities for growth in those sectors by focusing on labor pool size, median wage, talent density, and five-year jobs growth to rank cities across the US. Charlotte is a major standout, as is Tampa, which is in the top 10 cities for all three sectors.

Austin is in the top 10 cities for five-year jobs growth for financial services and TMT and Salt Lake City, Nashville, and Dallas are in the top 10 for financial services and life sciences. On the flip side, St. Louis and Pittsburgh are the slowest growing cities and are in the bottom ten for five-year jobs growth for all three sectors. In addition, Indianapolis, Philadelphia, Omaha, and Houston are in the bottom 10 for 5-year jobs growth for TMT and life sciences.
