Abstract: Abstract With a population of 23.5 million people, Texas was the second most populous state in the United States in 2006. From 2000 to 2006 the state’s population increased by 2,655,963 people, and is projected to increase to 30.9 million by 2025. This 1.4% projected annual growth rate compares to the projected national average of 0.8%. The state’s 2006 per capita personal income of $35,058 was higher compared to $33,160 in 2005 and thirtieth lowest in the United States, some $1,571 below the national average. Per capita income in Texas grew at an average annual rate of 3.6% from 2000 to 2006, compared to 3.5% nationally.
