Dallas should wait two years for job rebound

That’s the projection, complete with MSA regions map of the US, of this “eye-opener story on just how sluggish employment recovery could be.

But, take heart, DFW. It could be until 2014 for much of the subprime bubble’s ground zero, the LA-Las Vegas-Phoenix triangle. It could be longer than that for the auto collapse ground zero of southern Michigan and adjacent areas.

Here in Texas, if you’re looking for jobs sooner, it’s Austin, El Paso, Laredo or San Antonio. Houston’s the same as Dallas; other areas will be even slower.
