Phillip:  This is what all of us local agents have been saying when the national media kept whining about how property values have fallen over fifteen percent.  Texas has had steady growth for years and years.., thus... no bubble to burst.  My area, Fort Worth, is about as stable as any area can be... a great place to buy a home... and a great place to live.

That's one of the things my sister has commented on.  She works in Frisco and Plano.

As a realtor in Columbus, Ohio, this is optimistic news.  Now... if we can only get the news reporters to report this instead of all the gloom and doom!

Phillip,  Thanks for the list.  I'm happy to see that Pittsburgh is on the list, but then again, I figured it would be.  Mike
