In some parts of the economy, things are better than the rest. You may have heard President Donald Trump refer to the “American massacre,” or mention the rusted factories, seen in the background of the landscape, as “tombstones.” In some places this is true. But in other places you are likely to see people who drive Solowheels to their jobs with a six-figure salary, sipping aromatic coffee along the way.

Many areas in the United States, such as the Rust Belt, have lost economic value as a result of globalization. Others, mostly wealthy coastal cities, got more—but not necessarily at the expense of others. Jobs, money and opportunities have moved from state to state. It happened at breakneck speed and threw many communities off balance.

However, some states maintain stable economic growth. It is not even necessary for these states to have large, rich coastal cities. In a globalized economy, the ability to attract business and investment as a by-product of job creation is overvalued.

What are these states? By studying the data published by the Bureau of Labor Statistics, we can determine the states where many jobs are created. In these 10 states, there was the largest increase in the number of jobs during the 2016 year, which helped to reduce unemployment.

Here are the 10 states that created the most jobs in the 2016 year.

10. Idaho

Expanding mountain ranges, large freshwater lakes and lots of agriculture. Idaho is a largely rural state. It rounds out the top ten in terms of job creation in 2016. Employment grew 1,9% year over year.

9. Massachusetts

Massachusetts is not losing out. The Patriots won another Super Bowl, and jobs continue to be created on the basis of a strong local economy. In 2016, employment increased by 2,1%.

8. California

Perhaps we should expect the California economy to improve even more after the legalization of marijuana? It will be interesting to follow this, but in 2016, things were going great in the Golden State. The number of jobs in California last year increased by 2,1%.

7. Georgia

It's not just the place you filmed. The Walking Dead. Here people work everywhere. Employment in 2016 increased by 2,2%, but the state unemployment rate is still slightly higher than the national average.

6. Missouri

Since 2017, the unemployment rate in Missouri has averaged about 4,4%. The state had a strong year of employment growth in 2016, the number of employed jobs increased by 2,3%.

5. Utah

In recent years, Utah has become an economic center. The state opens enterprises (including many start-ups and technology companies) and entrepreneurs. Employment jumped 2,8% in 2016 year.

4. Washington

Obviously, people in Washington are busy executing presidential orders and creating jobs. Employment in 2016 increased by 2,9%, and the state unemployment rate is slightly more than 5%.

3. Nevada

In recent years, a significant increase has been observed in the economy of the state of Nevada. The country's unemployment rate is currently around 5%, and in 2016, employment has improved by 2,9%.

2. Oregon

Maybe it was marijuana, strange donuts, or bicycle nuts that lifted Oregon's economy to the skies? Oregon employment increased by 3% in the 2016 year, and the unemployment rate exceeds the national figure of 4,6%.

1. Florida

Here, first job creation in the 2016 year: Florida. Well, this is technically related to Oregon, and the unemployment rate in Florida is also pretty impressive, below 5%.
