BusinessWeek cites area’s military relationship as reason for growth
By: Kristie Avery - Texarkana Gazette
Texarkana, Texas, has been ranked No. 22 by BusinessWeek.com in its “America’s 25 Next Recovering Job Markets” list.
The city has also been mentioned as a metro area poised to see job growth by the first quarter of 2010 by a joint BusinessWeek.com and Moody’s Economy.com report. The Moodys’ Economy report credits the job growth to Texarkana’s association with the military.
“Due to the increasingly diversified job market in our region coupled with the increasingly diversified military industry, it is safe to assume that there will be ongoing stability—a potentially slight growth—in our availability of good jobs,” said Jeff Sandford, president of the Texarkana Chamber of Commerce.
