I religiously follow your blog and I'd have to say this is by far the best example of why I read Hiring Demand: well articulated critical thinking and statistical analysis. One has to wonder who comes up with these major publication "Top/Best" lists and why they choose their methodology. I learned quite a bit from this article, not only about the analysis of the article and the recovery, but also about how to think critically about other people’s suppositions.

I've added some text and a graph to fill in the analytical gap you've highlighted. Please note that WANTED Analytics subscribers have the ability to customize data by geographic area to meet their individual needs (Census Region, State, Metropolitan Area, County, City). I've examined the 'Top 5' markets: "The upward trend has affected most US metro areas, although not uniformly. Looking at the 'Top 5′ US Metro Areas in terms of job ad volume, IT Hiring Demand over the past 5 months has grown the most in Boston (+8.5%), followed by New York (+7.0%), Washington (+4.9%), Los Angeles (+3.6%) and Chicago (+1.7%)."
