What drives people to move out of cities and into the small towns that are beginning to boom around Texas? How can a town benefit from having an "economic sugar daddy"? Why are we starting to see little "Hamptons" pop up in Texas? Find out the answer to these questions and more on this episode of the Entre Podcast with Chip Bubela. Gary Maler joins us and educates us on some of the demographic changes Texas is seeing in its small towns and what drives people to leave cities in search of a new start in rural areas.
Gary was the long-time president of the Texas A&M Real Estate Research Center and now serves as their Director of Strategic Initiatives. He continues to conduct research and share his findings through his blogs published by TRERC. Gary's wealth of knowledge and time researching trends in Texas's small towns makes him the go-to expert for understanding some of the demographic changes we are seeing today.
