My husband and I are thinking about moving to Pittsburg, TX. My husband was born there. We would like to know what the employment opportunities are like in that town and the surrounding areas. We would also like to know about the real estate market as well.

Any reliable information would be appreciated.

Thanks

Maybe plucking chickens for Bo Pilgrim?

But for real -- here is a data dump from indeed.com, with no spec. search word, location set at "pittsburg, tx" and range set at 25 miles. Well over 100 jobs.

Yup... Pilgrim's Pride would be the place to look. You can buy chicken at a huge discount

Have you thought about other small towns with close proximity to Dallas or Longview. Look at the historic town of Mineola...80 mi east of Dallas and 56 to Longview...30 mi to Tyler. I have a friend who lives in Pittsburg...she says there is nothing there but Pilgrims chicken plant.
