Study shows San Antonio is a popular place for families who are relocating

San Antonio Business Journal

San Antonio has been named the fifth best large metropolitan city in America for relocating families by Worldwide ERC and Primacy Relocation.

The two companies examined several factors, including job growth figures for 2007, percentage of nearby top-ranked colleges, average in-state tuition for four-year public colleges, the amount of pediatricians per 100,000 population and taxes.

Worldwide ERC and Primacy announced the results of the survey at the National Relocation Conference in San Antonio.

The top ranked metropolitan areas with populations of 1.3 million and above are Pittsburgh, Indianapolis, Austin, Fort Worth and San Antonio.

Worldwide ERC serves as a network of workforce mobility professionals in the United States and global markets. It is based in Washington, D.C. Memphis-based Primacy Relation is a global third-party employee relocation company.

"Our members know that there are many factors that lead to a successful relocation," Worldwide ERC CEO Cris Collie says. "Quality of life issues are increasingly important to transferees, and the employers who move them are recognizing those requirements. Being able to meet the needs of the entire family will be increasingly critical as the labor market grows tighter."
