That being said, there are certain cities out there that are better for working women than others.<br \/>\nSo, which was the best city for female professionals? That distinction goes to Lubbock, TX. Here are <a href=\"https:\/\/www.movoto.com\">Movoto Real Estate<\/a>\u2019s 10 best cities for professional women:<br \/>\n1. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.movoto.com\/or\/safest-places-in-oregon\/\">Lubbock, TX<\/a><br \/>\n2. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.movoto.com\/omaha-ne\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Omaha, NE<\/a><br \/>\n3. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.movoto.com\/corpus-christi-tx\/\">Corpus Christi, TX<\/a><br \/>\n4. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.movoto.com\/lincoln-ne\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Lincoln, NE<\/a><br \/>\n5. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.movoto.com\/wichita-ks\/\">Wichita, KS<\/a><br \/>\n6. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.movoto.com\/pittsburgh-pa\/\">Pittsburgh, PA<\/a><br \/>\n7. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.movoto.com\/winston-salem-nc\/\">Winston-Salem, NC<\/a><br \/>\n8. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.movoto.com\/tulsa-ok\/\">Tulsa, OK<\/a><br \/>\n9. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.movoto.com\/laredo-tx\/\">Laredo, TX<\/a><br \/>\n10. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.movoto.com\/boise-id\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Boise, ID<\/a><br \/>\nSo, what makes <a href=\"\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Texas<\/a> such a great place for professional women\u2014and where, oh where, are all of the young professional females of Manhattan that we see in movies and television? Well, apparently in our imaginations, since <a href=\"https:\/\/www.movoto.com\/new-york-city-ny\">New York City<\/a> didn\u2019t even make the top 50. To find out which cities did, you can hop down to the end of this post for our rankings. Otherwise, keep reading and we\u2019ll describe the method of our analysis.<\/p>\n<h2>How We Did It<\/h2>\n<p>Whether we\u2019re looking for <a href=\"https:\/\/www.movoto.com\/blog\/top-ten\/retire-in-pennsylvania\/\">the best places to retire<\/a> within a state or simply looking at which place is the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.movoto.com\/blog\/top-ten\/friendliest-small-cities\/\">nicest<\/a>, we rely on certain measurable criteria in order to come up with our top 10 lists. In order to find the best cities for professional women, we narrowed it down to these five:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Commute Time<\/li>\n<li>Recent Job Growth<\/li>\n<li>Unemployment Rank<\/li>\n<li>Adjusted Earnings for Women (average earnings, adjusted for the cost of living)<\/li>\n<li>Number of Women\u2019s Professional Groups Per Capita<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>We then looked at U.S. Census data and women\u2019s professional group websites to apply these five criteria to each of the 100 largest cities in the country. From there, we ranked each city across the five categories from 1 to 100; the lower the number, the better. Finally, we averaged the rank across all of our categories, and the city with the lowest score, Lubbock, in this case, was our winner.<br \/>\nNow that you know the method behind our analysis, keep on reading as we take you on a virtual tour of the 10 places that were best for young professional women, starting with our winner, Lubbock, Texas.<\/p>\n<h2>1. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.movoto.com\/or\/safest-places-in-oregon\/\">Lubbock, TX<\/a><\/h2>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/s3.amazonaws.com\/movotoblog\/2014\/03\/best-cities-working-women\/images\/1.jpg\" alt=\"Lubbock, TX\" style=\"width:600px\" \/><\/p>\n<div class=\"source\">Source: Texas Tech MBA For Working Professionals Facebook<\/div>\n<p>Lubbock, TX, may be best known as a college town (the home of Texas Tech), but it\u2019s much more. Sure, it\u2019s one of <a href=\"https:\/\/www.movoto.com\/blog\/opinions\/most-cowboy-cities-texas\/\">the most cowboy cities in Texas<\/a>, but it\u2019s also affordable, has some great live <a href=\"https:\/\/www.movoto.com\/blog\/opinions\/move-to-lubbock-tx\/\">music<\/a>, and, according to our latest analysis, is one of the best places for professional women.<br \/>\nWhy? At 18 minutes, Lubbock had the lowest average commute time of any city in our ranking. Additionally, it had a recent job growth of 3.19 percent and an unemployment rate of just 5.5 percent, meaning that the job market is ripe with opportunity. But what makes it so great for women in particular? Lubbock is the home to a National Association of Professional Women chapter, and once the average woman\u2019s weekly salary ($633) was adjusted for Lubbock\u2019s cost of living (82), Lubbock was one of the top 30 cities on our list in terms of adjusted earnings for women.<\/p>\n<h2>2. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.movoto.com\/omaha-ne\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Omaha, NE<\/a><\/h2>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/s3.amazonaws.com\/movotoblog\/2014\/03\/best-cities-working-women\/images\/2.jpg\" alt=\"Omaha, NE\" style=\"width:600px\" \/><\/p>\n<div class=\"source\">Source: City of Omaha<\/div>\n<p>Omaha is known as <a href=\"https:\/\/www.movoto.com\/ne\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Nebraska&#8217;s<\/a> business hub. It\u2019s the home of five Fortune 500 companies, and, in recent years, was even named Kiplinger\u2019s third-best city in the U.S. to live, work, and play.<br \/>\nAs it turns out, that\u2019s especially true for women. In our analysis, Omaha had one of the lowest unemployment rates of any city we looked at: 4.2 percent. It also had a commute time of just 20 minutes and a recent job growth of 2.93 percent.<br \/>\nWhat made it really stand out for women in particular, however, was its score in adjusted earnings for women. On average, women in Omaha made $663 per week last year. Adjusted for the low cost of living of 82 (where 100 is the national average), Omaha women came in as the 13th best paid in the country.<\/p>\n<h2>3. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.movoto.com\/corpus-christi-tx\/\">Corpus Christi, TX<\/a><\/h2>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/s3.amazonaws.com\/movotoblog\/2014\/03\/best-cities-working-women\/images\/3.jpg\" alt=\"Corpus Christi, TX\" style=\"width:600px\" \/><\/p>\n<div class=\"source\">Source: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/groups\/72980264547\/\">Hispanic Women&#8217;s Network of Texas-Corpus Christi Chapter<\/a> Facebook<\/div>\n<p>Once again, we\u2019re back in Texas, and spoiler alert: It\u2019s not the last time we\u2019ll be talking about it here either. In the past when we\u2019ve discussed Corpus Christi, it wasn\u2019t exactly in the most favorable of lights (it\u2019s not the best city for <a href=\"https:\/\/www.movoto.com\/blog\/top-ten\/worst-cities-for-food-lovers\/\">food lovers<\/a>), but today we\u2019re here to redeem this coastal city\u2014at least for working women.<br \/>\nAccording to our analysis, Corpus Christi saw a recent job growth of 3 percent, beating out 95 other cities in this category. It also left the other places on our list in the dust with an average commute time of 22 minutes. To put that into perspective, take a look at New York City, where the average commute is 44 minutes. Yikes.<\/p>\n<h2>4. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.movoto.com\/lincoln-ne\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Lincoln, NE<\/a><\/h2>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/s3.amazonaws.com\/movotoblog\/2014\/03\/best-cities-working-women\/images\/4.jpg\" alt=\"Lincoln, NE\" style=\"width:600px\" \/><\/p>\n<div class=\"source\">Source: Flickr user <a href=\"http:\/\/www.flickr.com\/photos\/sarahrosenau\/\">Sarah Korf<\/a><\/div>\n<p>Texas and Nebraska are clearly doing something right in the workforce, because these two states are taking up the majority of our list. So, what is it that they\u2019re doing in the capital city that makes it so great for female professionals?<br \/>\nFirst of all, at 19 minutes, it had one of the shortest commute times in our analysis. Lincoln also aced it when it came to recent job growth (4.34 percent) and unemployment rate (3.2 percent), coming in as No. 1 in both these criteria. Now, we\u2019re not sure that you fully grasp just how insanely low 3.2 percent unemployment is, so to put this into perspective for you, in <a href=\"https:\/\/www.movoto.com\/stockton-ca\/\">Stockton, CA<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.movoto.com\/fresno-ca\/\">Fresno, CA<\/a>, it is almost 16 percent.<\/p>\n<h2>5. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.movoto.com\/wichita-ks\/\">Wichita, KS<\/a><\/h2>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/s3.amazonaws.com\/movotoblog\/2014\/03\/best-cities-working-women\/images\/5.jpg\" alt=\"Wichita, KS\" style=\"width:600px\" \/><\/p>\n<div class=\"source\">Source: Wichita Metro Chamber of Commerce<\/div>\n<p>Not only is Wichita an entrepreneurial business hub in the U.S., home to companies like Koch Industries and Spirit Aerosystems, but it\u2019s also one of the best places in the U.S. for female professionals. The average weekly salary for Wichita women was $649. This may not sound all that impressive, especially when you look at a place like Washington D.C., where it was $1,072, but adjusted for the city\u2019s low cost of living of just 82, this means that the women of Wichita are actually paid quite well. (To put that in perspective for you, D.C.\u2019s cost of living is 143).<br \/>\nWichita also earned points for one of the lowest commute times on our list, just 20 minutes, and extra points for being the location of one of the National Association of Professional Women chapters.<\/p>\n<h2>6. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.movoto.com\/pittsburgh-pa\/\">Pittsburgh, PA<\/a><\/h2>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/s3.amazonaws.com\/movotoblog\/2014\/03\/best-cities-working-women\/images\/6.jpg\" alt=\"Pittsburgh, PA\" style=\"width:600px\" \/><\/p>\n<div class=\"source\">Source: Flickr user <a href=\"http:\/\/www.flickr.com\/photos\/chesapeakeclimate\/\">chesapeakeclimate<\/a><\/div>\n<p>Recently, we named Pittsburgh as one of <a href=\"https:\/\/www.movoto.com\/blog\/top-ten\/retire-in-pennsylvania\/\">the best places in Pennsylvania to retire<\/a>, one of <a href=\"https:\/\/www.movoto.com\/blog\/top-ten\/best-places-wrestle\/\">the 10 best cities for wrestling<\/a>, a great place for <a href=\"https:\/\/www.movoto.com\/blog\/top-ten\/movie-lovers\/\">movie lovers<\/a>, and one of <a href=\"https:\/\/www.movoto.com\/blog\/top-ten\/best-cities-for-women\/\">the best places for women<\/a>.<br \/>\nAdding to that last one, Pittsburgh has now been named one of the best cities for professional women, mostly due to women\u2019s relative income. On average, Pittsburgh women earn $694 per week, and with a cost of living of just 85, this makes the women of Steel City the eighth highest earners in the country. Pittsburgh is also the home to one of the National Association of Professional Women chapters, and scored well for its low unemployment rate of 6.4 percent. No wonder Pittsburgh has a total of 74,247 women in the workforce.<\/p>\n<h2>7. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.movoto.com\/winston-salem-nc\/\">Winston-Salem, NC<\/a><\/h2>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/s3.amazonaws.com\/movotoblog\/2014\/03\/best-cities-working-women\/images\/7.jpg\" alt=\"Winston-Salem, NC\" style=\"width:600px\" \/><\/p>\n<div class=\"source\">Source: Professional Women of Winston-Salem Facebook<\/div>\n<p>This <a href=\"https:\/\/www.movoto.com\/nc\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">North Carolina<\/a> city of 234,349 residents came in near the top of our list, mostly due to its high recent job growth (1.93 percent) and low average commute time (22 minutes).<br \/>\nWinston-Salem also scored points for its number of women\u2019s groups per capita. While there is only one NAPW chapter there, this city\u2019s population is smaller than others on our list, giving it a higher rank per capita. In other words, if you\u2019re not yet a member of your local National Association of Professional Women chapter, there is still likely plenty of space.<\/p>\n<h2>8. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.movoto.com\/tulsa-ok\/\">Tulsa, OK<\/a><\/h2>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/s3.amazonaws.com\/movotoblog\/2014\/03\/best-cities-working-women\/images\/8.jpg\" alt=\"Tulsa, OK\" style=\"width:600px\" \/><\/p>\n<div class=\"source\">Source: Flickr user <a href=\"http:\/\/www.flickr.com\/photos\/rawartists\/\">rawartistsmedia<\/a><\/div>\n<p>Tulsa, the second largest city in <a href=\"https:\/\/www.movoto.com\/ok\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Oklahoma<\/a>, is the cultural and arts center of the state, home to two world-renowned museums; it has been called one of America\u2019s most liveable cities by Forbes and Relocate America, and recently, FDi Magazine named Tulsa the No. 8 city in the U.S. for cities of the future.<br \/>\nAnd the future certainly looks bright in Tulsa\u2014especially for its 95,564 professional women. Women in Tulsa earned an average of $694 per week last year. With a cost of living of just 85, where the national average is 100, this meant that the women of Tulsa placed 8th in the country, when it came to earnings.<br \/>\nTulsa also ranked well for its low commute time of just 21 minutes on average, and an unemployment rate of 6.2 percent. Finally, while Tulsa does have one women\u2019s professional group, it didn\u2019t earn as many points as it could have here due to its larger population.<\/p>\n<h2>9. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.movoto.com\/laredo-tx\/\">Laredo, TX<\/a><\/h2>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/s3.amazonaws.com\/movotoblog\/2014\/03\/best-cities-working-women\/images\/9.jpg\" alt=\"Laredo, TX\" style=\"width:600px\" \/><\/p>\n<div class=\"source\">Source: Doctors Hospital of Laredo Facebook<\/div>\n<p>Laredo may be one of the most overlooked and underrated\u2014if not downright chastised\u2014cities in Texas. Sure, it\u2019s not a great place for <a href=\"https:\/\/www.movoto.com\/blog\/top-ten\/worst-cities-for-food-lovers\/\">food lovers<\/a>, but as our latest ranking shows, it is one of the best place for female professionals.<br \/>\nWith an economy based mostly on international trade with Mexico, most major U.S. transportation companies have a facility in Laredo, which may be a big reason behind both this city\u2019s unemployment rate of 7.2 percent and the recent job growth of 2.43 percent.<br \/>\nLaredo scored well for women in particular, with an average woman\u2019s salary of $633 per week and one of the lowest costs of living on our list: 77, where the national average is 100.<\/p>\n<h2>10. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.movoto.com\/boise-id\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Boise, ID<\/a><\/h2>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/s3.amazonaws.com\/movotoblog\/2014\/03\/best-cities-working-women\/images\/10.jpg\" alt=\"Boise, ID\" style=\"width:600px\" \/><\/p>\n<div class=\"source\">Source: Flickr user <a href=\"http:\/\/www.flickr.com\/photos\/rawartists\/\">rawartistsmedia<\/a><\/div>\n<p>We all know that there are plenty of <a href=\"https:\/\/www.movoto.com\/blog\/opinions\/things-to-do-in-boise\/\">awesome things to do<\/a> in this <a href=\"https:\/\/www.movoto.com\/id\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Idaho<\/a> city, but according to this latest analysis, it also looks as though there are plenty of great opportunities for women.<br \/>\nWith a relatively small population of just 244,731, Boise came in with the most women\u2019s groups per capita in our top 10, even though it just has one National Association of Women Professional chapter. It also ranked well for a positive recent job growth of 1.53 percent, plus the bonus of a low average commute time of just 20 minutes\u2014perfect for the 55,639 Boise women in the workforce.<\/p>\n<h2>Making Women\u2019s History<\/h2>\n<p>It may be Women\u2019s History Month, but that certainly doesn\u2019t mean we aren\u2019t still making history\u2014and strides in the workplace. So congratulations to our winner, Lubbock, TX, and to all of the other cities that made our list. Not only are you helping to shape women\u2019s history, but you\u2019ve also put the notion that young professional women only exist in Manhattan (or the movies) to rest.
