Reuse, Reduce, Recycle
Thursday, October 27, 2011 |
Did you know:
Americans are only five percent of the world's population yet we produce 40 percent of
the waste.
We use enough plastic wrap to wrap all of Texas every year.
Recycling one aluminum can saves enough energy to run your television set for an hour,
recycling one ton of aluminum cans saves enough energy to run an average home for 10 years.
Americans use 2.5 million plastic bottles an hour. Recycling one ton of plastic saves
nearly four barrels of oil.
Recycling one ton of paper saves 17 trees, 7,000 gallons of water and 3.3 cubic yards
of landfill space. It also saves 4,100 kilowatts of energy—enough to heat your home for
six months.

Haslet in top 10 for 2010 growth

Keller, Haslet in top 10 for 2010 growth
Robert Francis
Four Texas cities – including Keller and Haslet – were named to the Gadberry Group’s list of ten most notable high-growth areas in the U.S. for 2010.
Frisco, Keller, Haslet and Katy were the four Texas cities in the top 10, with McKinney included in the list of the top 25, according to the Little Rock, Ark.-based data firm. The other cities in the top 10 are:
• Queen Creek, Arizona (a Phoenix suburb)
• Lehigh Acres, Florida (a Fort Myers suburb)
• Casa Grande, Arizona (a Phoenix suburb)
• South Jordan, Utah (a Salt Lake City suburb)
• Lincoln, California (a Sacramento suburb)
• Cary, North Carolina (a Raleigh suburb)
The ten selected places in this year’s list had average household growth of 150 percent from 2000 to 2010, compared with last year’s list average of 170 percent from 2000 to 2009. In spite of the economic challenges of the past few years, there continue to be pockets of growth in the most resilient areas of the country, according to Larry Martin, Gadberry Group principal.
“Compiling the 2010 list was especially interesting as we anticipate the release of the 2010 Census household counts, which we are confident will confirm our household counts,” he said in the report.
Texas appears to once again be bucking national economic trends by capturing four of this year’s slots, according to the report. The LoneStarState claimed four spots on the 2009 list, as well. Industry research indicates that 1.8 percent job growth over the last year is likely a contributing factor.
“This year the number-one spot went to Katy, Texas, where household growth seems unaffected by the economic conditions that challenge many parts of the nation,” Martin said in a statement. “Katy topped the list with an 8.71 percent increase in households from 2009 to 2010.”
Katy is a suburb of Houston.
Data from the Gadberry Group’s report on the top 10 in the North Texas area
Haslet
“Located north of Fort Worth, the Haslet area added 9,152 households since 2000, and increased 6.8 percent from 2009 to 2010. Overall, Haslet was the fastest growing area of the ten since 2000 with a 735 percent growth rate.
“Haslet’s average household income ended the decade at $87,140. Based on Gadberry’s household net worth data, over 300 millionaires call the Haslet area home. Average household net worth for all households in 2010 was $222,833. Average length of residence was 3.9 years, the shortest average length of residence of the ten. Haslet has the second-lowest average age of the ten at 31.9 years. Only 275 households have lived in the area 15 years or longer. Notably, the Hispanic community grew almost twentyfold to 1,376 households.”
Keller
“Located just east of Haslet, the Keller area added 25,028 households since 2000, and increased 6.4 percent from 2009 to 2010, taking third place in household growth. Overall, Keller grew at 226 percent for the decade. Keller ranked third on this year’s list for the most new households during 2010 with 2,171.
“Keller’s average household income was third highest of the ten at $100,607, with over 3,200 households having an average income greater than $200K. The Keller area ended the decade with 3,339 households with net worth of one million dollars or greater. Average household net worth for 2010 was $304,888, while average length of residence was 5.3 years. Haslet has the fourth lowest median age of the ten at 32.9 years. The Asian community grew 635 percent over the decade, with Vietnamese representing the largest Asian minority at 389 households.”
Frisco
“The north Dallas suburb of Frisco took the number-one position on the 7 from 2007 list, and returns to take the number-six position on this year’s list with a 5 percent growth in households since 2009. The area added the second most households at 2,323 for a total of 48,374. The city of Frisco’s Master Plan says that when the city fully develops into its 69 square miles, it may be home to a population of as many as 350,000 people.
“Average household income for the area grew to $94,802 for the decade, while average net worth was $308,928. Over 20 percent of all households had an average household income of $100,000 or greater. The average length of residence was only 4.8 years. Having lived in Frisco for the past 18 years, Frisco Mayor Maher Maso represents a small minority of long time residents. Only 4 percent of households have lived in the area over 15 years. The majority of all households in the area have been there for 5 years or less.
“At 32.8 years, the average age was identical to Keller’s. Among the ethnic groups who live in Frisco, Asian households grew more than all others but those from India make up the largest ethnic group at over 1,000 households.”
