As new “Silicon” hubs pop up nationwide, many are debating which will be the next big tech city. These cities must be places attractive to young innovative tech geniuses and offer a place for them to thrive.
So, in a new study from Jotform, they’ve found which U.S. cities are best for young GenZ techies to launch their tech careers.
The study analyzes the 150 largest cities by the average tech salary and affordability, the local GenZ population and tech-friendly factors to uncover the best cities. Findings include:
The tech boom is real in #1 Miami, FL where GenZ techies abound (22.7% of the population are Gen Zers), and tech salaries are steadily climbing.
3 Florida cities feature in the top 10: #1 Miami, #2 Orlando, and #9 Tampa. All three offer some of the best balances of youthful GenZ populations, affordability, and blossoming tech industry of all the cities analyzed.
#3 Cincinnati is the most affordable, with an average monthly rent of $760 and the real value of their $100, a powerful $110.38.
All of the top 10 cities boast salaries over $100K.
