Solid Job Growth in December

Inland region boosts state job growth

California is outdistancing the nation in job growth, in part because of the number of jobs being added in the Inland Empire, according to a report recently released.

The two-county region, along with the San Joaquin Valley and Sacramento, are adding more jobs – and at a faster rate – than regions that usually see the largest job gains, the latest UCLA Anderson Forecast reported.

In December, Riverside and San Bernardino counties recorded year-over-year job growth of 3.4 percent. During the same period, the Silicon Valley’s job growth increased only 2.2 percent, and the U.S, job growth during that time was 1.5 percent.
