Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, emerges as the top U.S. city for job openings per capita, according to a WalletHub study. With a population of around 308,000, it offers more opportunities than any other metro area. The citys economy has diversified beyond manufacturing, with education and health services thriving. Other midsize cities like Columbia, South Carolina, Orlando, Florida, Saint Louis, Missouri, and Richmond, Virginia, also rank high. These cities provide strong worker protections, top employers, and various internship or work-share programs.
