Seattle's Good for STEM
Seattle’s the No. 2 best place in the nation for STEM workers, according to a new survey by NerdWallet (an org with a name after our own hearts). They looked at annual mean wage for STEM jobs, factoring in the cost of living, and the number of STEM jobs as a percentage of all jobs in the area. Top of the heap was San Jose-Sunnyvale-Santa Clara, Calif., a.k.a Silicon Valley, but Seattle-Bellevue-Everett wasn’t far behind with its massive aerospace, information tech, clean tech and life sciences industries. Greater DC, Houston, and San Francisco rounded out the top 5.
