LIST: These Are The Fastest-Growing Cities In California

Frisco is the fastest-growing city in the country. No, not San Francisco, as some might expect.

According to a new report by WalletHub, Frisco, Texas, tops the list of the fastest-growing cities in America due to its rapid job and population growth. The Dallas suburb is home to the Dallas Cowboys headquarters and National Videogame Museum.

To determine where the most rapid local economic growth occurred from 2010 to 2016, WalletHub analysts compared 515 U.S. cities of varying sizes across 15 key metrics. The data ranges from job growth to population growth, and median household income growth to median house price growth.

The Lone Star State is well-represented on the finance website's list. Following Frisco at the No. 1 spot, there are three other Texas cities in the top 10: Midland (No. 5), McKinney (No. 6) and Austin (No. 9).

So how did cities in the Golden State rank?

When looking at the overall rankings, only one California city ranked among the top 10 fastest-growing cities in the country.

Pleasanton came in as the 10th fastest-growing city in America, according to WalletHub. The suburb in the San Francisco Bay Area is home to a number of corporate headquarters, from Safeway to Simpson Manufacturing.

WalletHub also separately ranked the growth of small, medium and large cities.

Pleasanton came in as the fourth fastest-growing small city, with only Meridian, Idaho, Fort Myers, Florida, and Bend, Oregon, faring better. Milpitas, a city in Santa Clara County, landed the seventh spot in the small city rankings, followed by Redwood City, on the San Francisco Peninsula, in the ninth spot. Overall, Milpitas ranked 18th and Redwood City ranked 23rd among the 515 cities.

Irvine in Orange County is the seventh fastest-growing midsize city, according to WalletHub. The city ranked 13th overall.

A few of California's biggest cities ranked among the top 10 fastest-growing big cities. San Jose came in sixth, followed by Oakland at eighth and San Francisco at the ninth spot. Overall, San Jose ranked 45th, Oakland ranked 65th and San Francisco ranked 66th.
