Metro Houston created 2,300 jobs in June, according to data released by the Texas Workforce Commission (TWC). That is relatively weak compared to historical trends, with the region averaging 10,500 jobs in June during the decade before the pandemic. Despite this slow growth, Houston has recovered all seasonal jobs lost in January for a gain of 300 workers year-to-date. Adjusting for seasonal factors, that represents 12,900 jobs added since December.
