Creating industrial parks, attracting new industries, and investing in workforce development are all key strategies for stimulating economic growth. Industrial parks provide infrastructure and space for businesses to set up operations, while attracting new industries diversifies the local economy and creates job opportunities. Buc-ee's, in particular, is known for its large-scale convenience stores and travel centers, which can bring both employment opportunities and increased traffic to the area.Investing in workforce development ensures that local residentshave the skills and training needed to fill the jobs created by new industries.This can involve partnerships with educational institutions, vocationaltraining programs, or initiatives to support entrepreneurship and smallbusiness development.It's commendable that for over six decades, HCDC has beenactively involved in these efforts for over six decades, contributing to theeconomic vitality of Harrison County, Mississippi.#harrisoncountyms #builtstrongerforbusiness #iedc

Dallas is America's new 'boomtown'By Emma W. Thorne, Editor at LinkedIn NewsUpdated 1 week agoDallas-Fort Worth is surging to become one of the country's fastest growing metropolitan areas. Between 2021 and 2022, the region — which includes Arlington, Plano and Garland — added more people than any other metro in the country. In fact, Dallas-Fort Worth is on track to become the nation's third most-populous metro area within 10 years, nabbing the spot from Chicago. Businesses are leading the charge, with 265 either relocating or expanding to the area since 2020, including construction equipment giant Caterpillar. The area also benefits from easy airport, highway and rail access, and its major universities that produce a skilled workforce.Fort Worth alone gained 19,000 residents between July 2021 and July 2022 — more than any other U.S. city.In the next five years, Dallas-Fort Worth could become the only U.S. metro area to contain two cities with populations over 1 million.

"Go West, young man, and grow up with the country." ... or maybe just shift West of Wake County NC. Chatham County has a transformational development pipeline that will change the real estate landscape over the next 5-10 years. One of many noteworthy projects is the constructing of the Wolfspeed campus. This one project will be $5B and is projected to create 1,800 jobs with an average wage of $77k. When looking for properties with the potential to appreciate and a shot at finding cashflow, start thinking about communities within a 45-60 minute commute to Raleigh/Durham.

Why do I love NW Arkansas? 🤷🏼♂️Straight from the Milken Institute on the nations best performing cities…👇🏻“As one of the fastest-growing metro areas, Fayetteville is on pace to be home to 1 million residents by 2045, which would result in almost doubling its size in just over 20 years.* Employment in the leisure and hospitality industries has partly driven Fayetteville's post-pandemic spike in job growth, but over a five-year period, growth in financial activities, professional services, and transportation has accounted for almost one-third of the metro area's employment gains. Job growth in the information industries has also taken off, with employment in the overall sector growing 34.3 percent during the past five years (albeit, from a low starting level). And although commercial vacancies are at an all-time high in many major cities, Fayetteville just hit a record-low commercial vacancy rate of 5.6 percent.* This can be compared to regional neighbors Austin, Dallas, and Houston, which have commercial vacancy rates greater than 20 percent.”This one of MANY reasons why we at Trinity Peak Partners invest in multifamily here!If you love real estate investing like me, reach out, let’s connect! #nwa #nwarkansas #multifamily #realestate #realestateinvesting
