We tracked hiring and wage patterns into “payroll growth” — where did bosses increase staffing and pay the most last year?

But the first key ranking factor is the hiring pace— when the size of the workforce is figured into the math

Slow growers were Nebraska at 1.5%, then Oklahoma at 2.1% and Iowa at 2.2%. FYI: Texas was No. 10 at 6.1%. California had the nation’s largest leisure and hospitality job additions, with 413,404 workers added in 12 months ended in September, the latest comparable stats available. And 37 states had larger gaps including North Dakota, Washington state, Nebraska and Iowa, at 62%. Texas? 60%. Florida? 47%.
