McAllen, Texas is the only metropolitan area that saw growth in both employment and output during the first quarter of 2009.

Employment rose in New Haven, Conn. and Baton Rouge, while output also increased in Seattle, Austin, Virginia Beach, Washington, Richmond, San Jose, and Riverside.

Some 38 of the top 100 metro stopped declining in home prices over the past year. Many of these metros might attribute the stalled declines because of below-average employment declines, and lie in the less-affected parts of Pennsylvania and upstate New York and Sun Belt in Texas, Oklahoma, Arkansas, and Louisiana. They also exhibit below-average shares of REOs status due to bank foreclosure.

In other good news, Southern California home sales rose for the 11th consecutive month in May as sales of $500,000-plus homes started to come back.
