Fort Worth a top city for relocating families
Dallas Business Journal
The Fort Worth-Arlington metropolitan area has been named one of the best big cities in the country for relocating families by Worldwide ERC and Primacy Relocation.
Fort Worth-Arlington was ranked No. 1 best metropolitan area for families based on housing affordability, taxes, leisure and recreation, arts and culture, air and water quality, cost of living, unemployment rates, crime, schools and population growth.
The Dallas-Plano-Irving area was ranked 13th on the 2007 Best Cities for Relocating Families.
Worldwide ERC, based in Washington, D.C., is a company that assists employers relocating workers throughout the United States and the world.
Memphis, Tenn.-based Primacy Relocation is a third-party employee relocation provider. It helps employees arrange home sales, movers and overall logistics.
The two companies worked with Bert Sperling of Sperling's BestPlaces to rate the top 50 cities with a population higher than 1.25 million to compile the list.
"Without a doubt, the state of the housing market is having a huge impact on relocation decisions of both employers and the families who are being transferred," said Michelle Vallejo, Primacy's president for the Americas. "The cities on this list represent some of the stronger real estate markets and places that are most conducive to a successful family relocation."
