The workforce landscape in North Texas has changed significantly over the past five years, thanks to an increase of workers with college degrees and specialized skills, according to analysts and Census Bureau estimates.
Many of these workers are being lured to fill “white collar” jobs in fields such as science, mathematics, technology, corporate management and finance, resulting in a more diversified workforce, Assanie said. Dallas County’s median household income was roughly $78,463 in December 2022 dollars, far below the national median of $90,516, according to the inflation-adjusted 5-year Census estimates. The two smaller counties had even higher median incomes — Collin’s estimated median household income is more than $130,000 when adjusted for inflation; Denton’s median was slightly less at $123,804 after adjusting for inflation.
Andrew Fadner, a North Texas native, has been a tech and data consultant for Robert Half’s Full Time Engagement Professionals program since January 2022. This program attracts professionals to contract with clients in any industry in North Texas to manage short and long-term IT projects. The North Texas economy has been diversifying over the past decade or two, said Assanie, the analyst with the Federal Reserve Bank of Dallas. She said that even after the COVID-19 pandemic brought on a recession, the region saw jobs rebound and “booming e-commerce growth” expanding trade and transportation occupations, along with the warehousing industry.
