    As one of the country’s largest providers of COVID-19 testing, Mansfield-based eTrueNorth has witnessed a whirlwind of activity since the 2020 onset of the pandemic. That whirlwind has contributed to explosive growth for the business.

    Founded in 2013, eTrueNorth ranks fourth on Inc. magazine’s new list of the country’s 5,000 fastest-growing private companies. From 2018 to 2021, eTrueNorth saw explosive growth in revenue, posting a 42,428 percent growth rate. Aside from being fourth in revenue growth among U.S. private companies, eTrueNorth ranks first among Texas companies on the list and second among health care companies on the list.

    The company specializes in providing point-of-care testing at pharmacies across the U.S.

    “Our hard work to make health care more accessible is paying off for the American people. Patients value the convenience, while health plans appreciate the novel opportunity for addressing gaps in care,” Coral May, co-founder and CEO of eTrueNorth, says in a news release about the Inc. 5000 recognition.

    In all, 468 Texas-based companies made this year’s Inc. 5000, including 188 in Dallas-Fort Worth. Other DFW businesses in Texas’ top 20 are:

    • No. 13 StaffDNA, Plano, 19,699 percent growth rate
    • No. 17 Blue Hammer Roofing, Dallas, 15,911 percent growth rate
    • No. 116 TimelyMD, Fort Worth, 3,852 percent growth rate
    • No. 142 Curis Functional Health, Farmers Branch, 3,380 percent growth rate
    • No. 148 SmartLight Analytics, Plano, 3,317 percent growth rate
    • No. 168 Digital Thrive, Dallas, 3,056 percent growth rate
    • No. 172 Forester Haynie, Dallas, 2,984 percent growth rate

    Here are the other Texas companies appearing in the state’s top 20:

    • No. 60 AdOutreach, Austin, 6,052 percent growth rate
    • No. 62 Webforce, Austin, 6,009 percent growth rate
    • No. 117 Homestead Brands, Austin, 3,839 percent growth rate
    • No. 174 Disrupt Equity, Houston, 2,975 percent growth rate
    • No. 188 24HourNurse Staffing, Pittsburg, 2,801 percent growth rate
    • No. 201, Everly Health, Austin, 2,643 percent growth rate
    • No. 209, Texas Solar Integrated, San Antonio, 2,559 percent growth rate
    • No. 212, Apple Blvd Boutique, Frisco, 2,555 percent growth rate
    • No. 285 Element 26, Austin, 1,948 percent growth rate
    • No. 312 Boostlingo, Austin, 1,820 percent growth rate
    • No. 317 Cover Desk, Austin, 1,800 percent growth rate
    • No. 325 Canopy Management, Austin, 1,758 percent growth rate

    “The accomplishment of building one of the fastest-growing companies in the U.S., in light of recent economic roadblocks, cannot be overstated,” says Scott Omelianuk, editor in chief of Inc. “Inc. is thrilled to honor the companies that have established themselves through innovation, hard work, and rising to the challenges of today.”

    Companies on the 2022 Inc. 5000 are ranked by percentage growth in revenue from 2018 to 2021. To qualify for the list, a company must have been founded and been generating revenue by March 31, 2018. The company also must have been U.S.-based, privately held, for-profit, and independent as of December 31, 2021. The minimum revenue required for 2018 was $100,000; the minimum for 2021 was $2 million.

    Plano is the 7th best U.S. city to find a job in 2026, report finds

    Dallas neighbor Plano has worked its way into 7th place in WalletHub's new study ranking the best places to find a job in 2026.

    The just-released "Best Cities for Jobs (2026)" report compared 182 U.S. cities based on 31 relevant metrics "that shape the strength of local job markets" across two main categories: a socioeconomics rank and a job market rank.

    WalletHub determined the top three best U.S. cities to find a job in 2026 are Scottsdale, Arizona (No. 1); Columbia, Maryland (No. 2); and Portland, Maine (No. 3).

    The report found Plano's job market ranking — which covered job opportunities, employment growth, unemployment rates, job automation risk, and more — is the 6th best in the U.S.

    Plano also ranked No. 40 in the nationwide socioeconomic category, which analyzed housing affordability, median annual income, average work and commute times, transit accessibility, and many other factors.

    While these employment indicators are important to consider when researching the best place to find work, WalletHub analyst Chip Lupo said the quality of the jobs available matters just as much as the quantity of available jobs in a city.

    "There are plenty of secondary factors to take into account as well, from how easy a city makes commuting to jobs to whether it’s a good place for raising a family or engaging in recreational activities outside of work," Lupo said.

    Plano is home to the headquarters and regional offices for major corporations including Toyota, J.C. Penney, Frito-Lay, PepsiCo, Bank of America, Capital One, Ericsson, and soon, AT&T.

    Plano was dubbed the No. 6 best city for remote workers in 2025, and the greater Dallas-Fort Worth metro recently ranked No. 3 a separate national ranking of the best cities for startups.

    Elsewhere in Texas, 10 more cities made it into the top-100 best places for finding a job: Austin (No. 9), Irving (No. 18), Grand Prairie (No. 24), Amarillo (No. 32), Garland (No. 48), Dallas (No. 54), Arlington (No. 60), Fort Worth (No.77), San Antonio (No. 78), and Corpus Christi (No. 100).

    The top 10 best U.S. cities for finding a job in 2026 are:

    • No. 1 – Scottsdale, Arizona
    • No. 2 – Columbia, Maryland
    • No. 3 – Portland, Maine
    • No. 4 – South Burlington, Vermont
    • No. 5 – Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania
    • No. 6 – Orlando, Florida
    • No. 7 – Plano, Texas
    • No. 8 – Washington, D.C.
    • No. 9 – Austin, Texas
    • No. 10 – Huntsville, Alabama
