Texas Named Best Business Climate by Site Selection Magazine

Texas has once again scored high honors as “the state most likely to succeed,” by Site Selection Magazine’s 2025 Business Climate Rankings.

Thanks to no corporate tax, simplified business regulations, lack of red tape, business-dedicated courts, a massive labor force, and a logistics infrastructure that’s hard to beat, the article praised both the governor’s office and local economic development communities like Liberty Hill for making Texas an “easy sell” for businesses looking for a landing spot to grow and expand their operations.

The article was equally impressed with the number of Inc. 5000 companies, noted as the fastest-growing private companies in the country, that are located in the Lone Star State.  Namely, Austin (122), Dallas (87) and Houston (60), numbers that outranked stiff competition from the likes of Georgia, North Carolina, South Carolina, and Florida.
