There is now alot of action going on at Holloman AFB as we now have 7 F-22 Raptors and should have the full aloted amount of 40 by next year as this will help fire up the economy as we've had no airwing for about 1 1/2 years since the F-117 Stealths retired from service.

White Sands Missile Range is expanding also so it's good that Cannon, Holloman and White Sands are all expanding this year and next.

heck yeah!! I still cant believe that 3,700 new airman is gonna fuel 17,000 more ppl to come but im excited...as i ride around town empty lots are saying sold..im happy that eastern and southern nm are doing so well cus all here is ab alb/sf..but being on the border we usually go to texas for our needs and the lubbock and amarillo news are the stations we get and maybe one from alb

Bank on pulling in other industry other than the military, so when the base does pull out (does our government do that to their own people?), you will not be left holding the bag...the shopping bag of a store that closed due to lack of $$$input.

Right, Shifty 50?

[Gabes4]

Clovis's economy bases 20% of it on the military..and has done many thing to reduse it after Clovis hits the 50,000 ppl mark projections show only 10% will be infuenced by the base which isnt bad!! And Im pretty sure that shifty 50 stuff has left..well atleast im hoping it did!!

I hope all that growth in Clovis dont effect Portales, I would hate to see my old hometown lose its charm and become a town that is not familiar to me with strip malls and tract houses.
