Austin lands in Top 10 for singles moving out of their shack
In yearly survey conducted by two relocation companies, Austin is one of the 10 desirable cities in the U.S. for moving singles.
Worldwide ERC, based in Washington, D.C., and Primacy Relocation, based in Memphis, Tennessee, worked with survey company Sperling’s BestPlaces to survey the statistical profiles of the 100 largest U.S. metro areas to weigh criteria including male to female ratios, clubs and restaurants, job growth, higher education costs and the prevalence of nightlife. Austin landed eighth out of the 100 surveyed cities.
According to Cris Collie, CEO of Worldwide ERC, “We know that successfully assimilating into a new community facilitates a transferee’s productivity, and as the labor market continues to tighten, opportunities for talented and mobile employees expand, and companies seek more ways to successfully compete for talent, the focus on elements that make relocation more attractive to job candidates becomes more significant.”
