TULSA, Okla. (AP) - A new study shows the Oklahoma City and Tulsa metro area economies rank among the top 10 in the country.
Using data and analysis from the Brookings Institution's new MetroMonitor study, BusinessWeek.com selected the top 40 economies based on job growth, employment, economic growth and home prices.

Oklahoma City ranked No. 3 on the list, with Tulsa at No. 7.

The study noted the oil and gas industry have played a key role in helping both cities weather the recession.
