Outta work? Move to Texas!

According to BizJournals.com, Texas is home to four of the top ten growing job markets.

• #1 Houston
• #2 Austin
• #3 Dallas/Fort Worth
• #6 San Antonio

Add in the relative low cost of living and friendly people and you have quite the compelling case to move to Texas. My one major complaint about Texas and my primary impetus for my hasty retreat is the provincial worldview of most Texans. Everything revolves around Texas. The Dallas Morning News and Houston Chronicle amongst other Texas publications has but only the briefest of AP blurbs on world news and Texans couldn't care less. As long as you don't drink too much of the koolaid, it's a nice place to live.
