COMMENTS: Houston is Happier than the City of Angels
ABC anchor Charles Gibson was more cheerful about his road trip to Houston--"You do not see many signs of recession"--than he had been earlier this month in Los Angeles. California, Gibson told us back then, was losing its population of United States citizens at the rate of 1.5m each decade. Not so Houston--along with Austin and San Antonio. Texas contains the only three cities among the 39 largest nationwide to increase its labor force in 2008. "People are moving here from all over the country in search of jobs." Gibson introduced us to economic migrants from Long Island and Michigan and Illinois.
