REMAX Real Estate Agent in The Woodlands & Spring, Texas  

The Woodlands is ranked No. 14 on Forbes America’s Top 25 Best (Relocation) Places to Move list.   The Woodlands was THE ONLY  Houston-area community to make the list, although seven other Texas communities – six in the Dallas-Fort Worth area, and one in the Austin area – were also included.

Fifty-eight percent of residents in The Woodlands were born in a different state or abroad, according to the 2000 Census. Twenty-six percent of residents moved into the area within five years

 

The magazine ranked towns known as “Relovilles” (top relocation cities) — young, mid- and upscale suburbs near company plants and office parks outside major cities.

Forbes used Census data to locate the towns, which boast populations of more than 25,000. Factors included the number of people in each town who were born out of state or abroad, who had moved into town from a considerable distance, moved within one to five years and moved for a job.

The Top 25 Relovilles have twice the incomes, twice the home values and home sizes, twice the college degrees, twice as many youth and half as many elderly, twice the divorce rates and twice the number of residents who vote Republican, according to the magazine’s research.
