Austin metro breaks record for new jobs announced, more expected before year-end

The year isn’t over yet, but the Austin metro has already seen a record-setting number of jobs pledged from company relocations and expansions. “2021 will be the Triple Crown in economic development for Central Texas,” said Gary Farmer, chairman of Opportunity Austin. “This year has already proved to be the best year for corporate relocations to the region, for corporate expansions in the region and for the greatest number of direct jobs announced in the region.”
