Richardson TX has been known as the Telecom Corridor since the 1980's.  This is because Richardson housed some of the major Telecom companies like Nortel, Ericcson, Fujitisu, AT&T, and many others.  Since Telecom took a downward spiral a few years ago, many of the Telecom companies left as well.  Many others downsized their office spaces.

Because of many buildings becoming vacant, Richardson decided to start recruiting other companies into their mix.  Fossil makes Richardson their home.  Countrywide took over much of Nortel's space.  It's a whole knew world as you go up 75 Central Expressway.

Here are some of the larger employers throughout Richardson, TX.Richardson ISD

There are many more companies in the area as well like Samsung, Texas Instruments (though technically has a Dallas address), and the Richardson Regional Medical Center and new Cancer Center.

This blog is to help educate Buyers and Sellers and even other Realtors across the country.  Each market is different and the way Real Estate is done is different.  Dallas Real Estate is completely different than California and Florida and everywhere else in between.  Some times there will be other things besides real estate as I like to rant and rave as much as the next!!  Come back often!
