To further what Mark said about the weather, warm weather attracts people to the south. The cities are all beautiful, especially in these photos. I think once a city finds its niche and showcases it then it makes a name for itself. Cities that get a lot of positive attention attract more residents and industries.EThttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01960065480704894445noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2391450667636277312.post-85581112090858591942011-05-17T10:31:18.404-07:002011-05-17T10:31:18.404-07:00That's pretty interesting.

They also seem to be doing it by focusing on industry that will stay relevant for a long time (financial, biotech, even Austin's focus on sustaining small business) so this isn't just a momentary boom and crash.Alex Lloyd-Evanshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00628592023683041203noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2391450667636277312.post-43531415752276942602011-05-17T08:07:34.732-07:002011-05-17T08:07:34.732-07:00"Last year, Texas tied with California as the..."Last year, Texas tied with California as the states home to the most Fortune 500 companies" I was surprised by this but that's great!
