TOP 100 Areas: Where the Jobs are for Young College Grads

Twenty-somethings have flocked to America's largest metros after graduation in recent years, according to a USA TODAY analysis of U.S. Census data. New York, Washington, D.C., Chicago and Los Angeles have provided nearly 400,000 jobs to recent graduates from 2006 to 2011, accounting for nearly 25% of the increase nationally. 

People ages 20 to 30 with a bachelor's degree or higher in the nation's top 100 metro areas increased by more than 1.4 million in that period. While areas such as New York provide traditional hubs for young graduates, others have experienced a rise as well. Some smaller metro areas are seeing 30%-40% increases, such as Houston, San Francisco and Austin.
