Texas Workforce Commission reports higher employment than previously thought

COLLEGE STATION (Texas Real Estate Research Center) – Texas' employment at the end of 2022 was higher than previously thought, according to revised historical employment data released this month by the Texas Workforce Commission.

An economist with the Texas Real Estate Research Center said this wasn’t due to growth in 2022 as much as it was to an underestimation of employment at the end of 2021.

"Texas job growth outperformed in 2021 by more than we knew," said Research Economist Dr. Adam Perdue. "We had even more jobs at the end of 2021 and the beginning of 2022 than we thought."

Perdue said that, statewide, Texas had about 60,000 more jobs in 2022 than previously reported.

San Antonio had around 10,000 more jobs, and Austin ended 2022 with 40,000 more jobs than previously reported.

"Dallas-Fort Worth employment came out a smidge lower, with the revisions down 10,000 at the beginning and end of 2022 relative to the amount previously reported," Perdue said. "Meanwhile, revisions show Houston had around 20,000 fewer jobs at the end of 2022 than we believed before."
