Description
The Houston region recovered from the collapse of the oil-boom in the 1980s to find itself in the midst of a restructured economy and a demographic revolution. We review the findings from 27 years of the "Houston Area Survey" (1982-2008) to measure these remarkable transformations and to consider their implications for the challenges and opportunities that lie ahead.
