Glassdoor noted that the metros stand out were determined by weighting three factors equally: how easy it is to get a job (hiring opportunity), how affordable it is to live there (cost of living), and how satisfied employees are working there (job satisfaction).

The report also included each metro’s median pay for employees, median home value, job satisfaction rating, number of current job openings, and population.
