I think this list would be much more useful by urban area or metro area. Fortune makes it ridiculously difficult to easily compile that info using their website, however.
Corporate Headquarters is a pretty useless metric. For example, Boeing was in Chicago and is now in Arlington VA. Raytheon is moving from metro Boston to DC.
Exactly. Boeing headquarters in Chicago had like what, 200 jobs? Most of the engineers are in Seattle and DC. Corporate headquarters are mainly just a game of where I can have the least tax liability, but the people in C-D love to mentally masturbate to that.
I'd be more interested in seeing a percentage share of high-paying corporate jobs in these cities. I would wager places like Boston and even San Diego do a hell lot better than places like Houston.
It's certainly quite advantageous to host corporate headquarters, but I don't see the likes of Austin, Raleigh, or Salt Lake City listed and yet they are kicking all kinds of butt economically.

theres a difference between being hot and being established.
That said, yes corporate headquarters aren’t what they used to be. And with WFH, this will be even more so moving forward. With today’s technology and infrastructure, companies can realistically have workers everywhere and get things done at real time.
If the OP has to post every last city with 1 or 2 headquarters the post would be ridiculously long.
Massachusetts isn't the only state that doesn't list all the cities that have headquarters that make the cut. All the states are like that.
The intriguing questions for me is states like Ohio with that many companies and States like Washington with so few. For a while now the image of Ohio has been the rust belt narrative and that of Washington has been that of corporate leader. So I want expecting Ohio to show so well and Washington to show so poorly.
Im aware, I can read.
My question was a general inquiry. Thank you for your response though
I love how they actually make a list of the 1000 top public companies by revenue, even though the list is called the Fortune 500.
Anyhow, I don't have time to do a MSA or CSA list right now, but here is the F1000s by state and city proper, if you find I have made errors please let me know.
