Where is there a surplus of rehab/construction workers?

I have been told that typically when the real estate market is strong, rehab/construction workers are easily kept busy and it's harder to find the good ones for good prices and available enough. Meanwhile, when there is a recession, there is a surplus of workers struggling to find projects. Now that the market is high and most places have a hard time getting contractors, are there any little pockets of areas in the country that actually have a surplus of contractors? I think that would be pretty interesting to find those little pockets.
