On Numbers analyzed 65 metros with populations above 800,000, searching for qualities that would appeal to workers in their 20s and early 30s. The study’s 10-part formula gave superior marks to places with strong growth rates, moderate costs of living, and substantial pools of young adults who are college-educated and employed.
Jacksonville ranked 43rd out of the 65 metros, with a 1.94 opportunity score for young adults. Bringing the area down was a -1.14 percent job growth rate from 2006 to 2011.
