Economists: Texans end trend of leaving state DALLAS (AP) — More people are choosing living in Texas to leaving from Texas, ending a two-year trend toward moving out of state, say two university economists. After losing roughly 100,000 peo ple in 1988, Texas gained a net of 30,000 immigrants in 1989, said Bernard Weinstein and Harold Gross of the Center for Economic Development and Research at the University of North Texas. “The fact that in one year migra tion shifted from minus 100,000 to plus 30,000 gives strong evidence that the Texas economy is on the re bound and that the state has once again become an attractive place to live and work,” the economists said in a report. They said the state’s population is now growing 30 percent faster than the nation’s and should continue the next few years to outpace the rest of the country. However, Texas and its five larg est metropolitan areas will continue early this year to struggle to create jobs, Weinstein and Gross said. Weinstein and Gross predicted metropolitan Dallas, Houston and San Antonio will witness very slight declines in wage-and-salary jobs dur ing 1990’s first quarter. Only the Fort Worth-Arlington and Austin areas will post increases, they said, although those too will be very slight. The federal government reported Friday that total Texas employment, which mostly includes non-farm po sitions, was up a little over 1 percent in the first three months of this year over the last quarter of 1989. The economists said they believe the state economy will pick up some strength in employment growth in the second quarter of this year. They projected the state will not gain non-farm wage-and-salary em ployment in the first quarter of 1990 over the final three months of last year. Atrocious band? Rival university or team?
