If you were moving to any other state in the US, you made a wise choice in Texas. They are doing things right, provide a good environment for businesses, etc. Heard some Texas lady give a presentation a month or so ago - the number of businesses that have moved to Texas in the last couple years is phenomenal especially considering the current US economy.
You moved in 1995 cuz you couldn't make a living building beautiful houses in Teay Valley? You missed what happened in Teays Valley the last few years evidently after you left. It was so insane that everyone and his brother became a developer of high priced homes/developments. I figure every man, woman, and child must have their own home in the Valley cuz I don't know where all the people came from who bought all those homes. Of course, with the housing bust in the US, the current economy, and the over abundance of developers (happens in every industry when the industry is hot) - many in the last year have lost their britches.
Guess we should not complain much - look at other states. The latest news....
