The document analyzes employment data from Texas and other states. It shows that Texas has significantly outpaced other large states in job creation. While some smaller states have lower unemployment rates, Texas compares favorably to more populous states. Texas's strong economy and job growth can be attributed to factors like international trade through ports and border cities, business relocations to major cities, and companies moving headquarters from other states to Texas. The document suggests Texas may continue gaining economic share from states like California and New York if current trends persist.
