Henry County: #7 for Best Job Growth in the Nation!
Great news about Henry County! This is especially for all of the negative people out there who try to foretell doom for this beautiful county. A wonderful place to live and work!

This is really awesome. The people of Henry County have quite a bit to be proud of!
Not to be a downer, but I really hope that this growth is well planned and maintained. This sounds eerily similar to Gwinnett County around 15 years ago. Just be careful, and enjoy the success!

Yeah, awesome! 
In case you have overlooked... Cherokee County (GA) is ranked 16th in that list. |

Yep, I did overlook (well, I actually didn't press the link that continued the list). Great news for Cherokee as well! |

Yes, Gwinnett did not plan their growth well. But remember, (unlike many on here), most of Gwinnett County is still a nice area (not rundown) and will probably remain so. |

cherokee? hmm yes cutting all these government jobs and defaulting the canton budget did wonders for the job growth. perhaps they are just hiring the people they fired back?

Sorry but you can post as many articles as you would like but the handwriting has been on the wall for some time in regards to Henry county, AKA the next Clayton county! |

Wow. Way to throw a wet blanket on aires' positive thread.
Have you ever considered a ranch in Wyoming? |

This whole post was in response to my thread "Can anything stop Henry county from turning into another Clayton county" and other people who have commented on it.
Maybe YOU should consider reading a few more post, he did mention in his original post about people saying NEGATIVE things about Henry county, ie ME! |

I DID read it. I have had the displeasure of reading more of your posts than I care to.
Hence, the reference to a ranch in Wyoming.
It is very clear that you do not like the direction the metro is moving in (as in more diverse). Living in the past doesn't work, so you would probably be happier elsewhere. |
