| Abstract: |
In the 1990s, the Texas economy exceeded even the remarkable performance of its U.S. counterpart. State job growth averaged 2.9 percent per year from 1990 to 2000, well ahead of the 1.8 percent annual increases in the United States. Three engines drove the Texas economy forward in the 1990s: the oil sector, high tech (especially in Austin and Dallas) and a boom in border-city employment. Employment growth in the four largest Texas border cities topped that of the nation, and the three south Texas cities outperformed the state by a wide margin.
