The coronavirus pandemic has sent the US economy on a rollercoaster ride.

In April, the US saw an unemployment rate of 14.7% – the highest since the Great Depression. While June saw the second straight month of net job gains, bringing the unemployment rate down to 11.1%, that was before a resurgence of COVID-19 cases hit several states.

The chief of the Federal Reserve Bank of Atlanta, Raphael Bostic, has now warned that he is seeing signs of a “leveling off” of US economic recovery, leading to a potentially “bumpier” road ahead.

But feeling the effects of the economy may depend on where you live.

A recent SmartAsset report determined the most recession-resistant cities in the US by looking at government data for 264 of the largest cities in the country across three categories: employment, housing, and social assistance. It ranked each city across three different metrics in each of these categories for a total of nine metrics, then averaged the metric rankings of each category, giving each an equal weighting.

It then determined the final ranking by averaging each city’s score in the three categories. Those with the highest ranking (close to 100) are most recession-resistant, while those with the lowest average ranking (close to 0) are the least.

Turns out, Texas is pretty recession-proof – five cities in the state made the top 10, including the top spot, and three more made the top 25.
