大休斯敦人口繼續激增中


當許多美國大都會之人口繼續向南方移動,大休斯敦人口已經增長到七百五十萬, 單單在二0二二年至二0二三年大休斯敦人口就增加了十四萬人 。


根據大商會之最新統計, 休斯敦和達拉斯地區之人口增長居於全美領先地位, 其中包括來自其他地區之居民和國際移民,包括許多應聘之技術人員, 當然其中也包括許多美墨邊境非法入境之外國人。


在最新之統計數字中, 許多人是在市區工作,但喜歡住在郊區 ,尤其是大休斯敦地區在疫情時減少之工作崗位,目前不但全數恢復而且成長了百分之一百五十, 相對的是在芝加哥及舊金山都會區,目前還未回到疫情前之就業水準。 


今天我們徳州是在全美地區為數不多每年政府財政還有剩餘之大州,而且有能源、 太空醫療等支柱產, 為德州打下非常埾石之基礎。


Greater Houston’s Population Continues To Surge


As the population of many U.S. metropolitan areas continues to move south, Greater Houston's population                                                                                                                 has grown to 7.5 million. Between 2022 and 2023 alone, Greater Houston's population increased by 140,000.


According to the latest statistics from the Chamber of Commerce, the population growth of the Houston                                                                                                                   

and Dallas areas is leading the nation. This includes residents from other areas and international immigrants, 

including many skilled workers seeking employment. Of course, this also includes many foreigners illegally 

crossing the U.S.-Mexico border.

Latest statistics show that while many people work in the city, most prefer to live in the suburbs. Especially in                                                                                                             

the greater Houston area, the jobs that were lost during the pandemic have not only fully recovered, but have                                                                                                           

grown by 150%. By contrast, Chicago and the San Francisco metropolitan areas have not yet returned to                                                                                                                   

pre-pandemic employment levels.


Today, Texas stands out as one of the few large states in the United States that has a surplus of government                                                                                                             

finance every year. It also has a pillar of industries such as energy, space, and medical care which have laid

a very solid foundation for future growth and development in the state.
