Arlington Chamber of Commerce

community.

A

s Chairman of the Board for the Arlington Chamber of Commerce I am honored to be associated with and represent an outstanding community made up of businesses, a well respected university, a top-flight college, a recognized public school system, a vibrant and diverse faith-based community, and outstanding citizens. The Arlington Chamber of Commerce has a rich heritage of working for more than half a century to serve member businesses and our community. Through the use of innovative strategies and resources, the Chamber today creates economic growth and opportunity for our community and our members. The Arlington Chamber believes in working through strategic partnerships that leverage our combined assets and resources. Together, we have been successful in bringing new levels of economic prosperity and quality of life to both our community and the North Texas region. The Chamber has recognized that achieving what is good for both the business community and the greater community will create a sustainable community. It means the Chamber is going to expand beyond our traditional partners, to other public and private entities that share our vision of “Building a Sustainable Community.” We convened a diverse group of over 100 community leaders to set priorities and goals that will benefit all of our communities in this next decade. It was very rewarding to see our community leaders working together in what we have called “The Policy Project.” Joining together and implementing these plans to achieve these common goals will continue to bring our community together. I am honored and proud to be part of a Chamber that is proactive, innovative, and inclusive. The Chamber, working together with our communities, will continue the task of “Building a Sustainable Community” in Arlington, Texas, and our whole region. E. Earl Harcrow Chairman of the Board Arlington Chamber of Commerce

Letter From the President

O

Chamber is one of our region’s largest business federations, representing businesses, organizations, and trade associations.

In order to build a sustainable community, the Chamber is now focused on four strategies: 1. Innovation, to position Arlington to compete in a globally competitive, knowledge-based, innovationdriven economy. 2. Creating a Competitive Workforce, to ensure employers have access — today and tomorrow — to a highly skilled, educated, and trained workforce. 3. Business & Community Development, to support business retention and expansion, building a community that will attract the market. 4. Policy & Advocacy, to advocate for a public policy regulatory environment that supports and promotes a vibrant, economically sustainable community and enhances our mobility.

Not since the Great Depression have we encountered a more challenging or turbulent economic landscape. The issues we face are more complex; the players more diverse. As the speed of business accelerates with each newly introduced technology discovery, our markets have become more regionally distinct and global in reach, while our communities have increasingly become multigenerational, multiracial, and multicultural. At the same time, this creates an opportunity for the Chamber and our strategic partners to convene, engage, and lead the broader community as we adjust to an ever-changing and expanding economic landscape amidst the global economic crisis. We do so with the knowledge that the projects completed from our strategic initiatives of the past eight years have laid a solid foundation for our community and region’s economic vitality, confident that our current strategic initiatives will enable our community’s sustainability in the future. We are the Chamber … building a sustainable community! Wes Jurey President/CEO Arlington Chamber of Commerce

The Arlington

n behalf of the Chamber’s board of directors, members, and staff, we are pleased to provide you with our 2011 Membership Directory and Community Profile. I trust this publication will serve both as an introduction to our community and a guide to the attractions, amenities, and business resources we have to offer. If you are searching for a location for your business and/or family, we believe Arlington is a place you will be proud to call home. I also trust this publication will introduce you to the Chamber and the role we play in building a sustainable community. The Arlington Chamber is one of our region’s largest business federations, representing businesses, organizations, and trade associations that collectively employ over 60,000 individuals — one-third of our community’s workforce! During the past year, we reassessed our strategies, initiatives, and priorities, in order to ensure we were responding to the economic challenges faced by our members and the community. We did so because we believe this is not a recession; it is the economy re-setting itself, in response to a number of global, economic drivers. In fact, we believe we are already seeing new business and economic models evolve, and we must be at the cutting edge, leading our members and the community we serve. In response, our board approved “Building a Sustainable Community” in 2009 as the Chamber’s new vision, which underscores our focus on building sustainable economic strategies and models for Arlington. Doing so means we recognize that what’s good for the business community is doing what’s best for the broader community — building a sustainable community.

Vision: Building a

Sustainable Community

T

he Arlington Chamber of Commerce, founded in 1945, is the City’s oldest and largest business organization and one of the largest business federations in the region. The Chamber works with both public and private-sector stra-

tegic partners to identify trends and address challenges that will affect

Corporate Values

The work of the Chamber is guided by five values that represent our “corporate culture”: 1. Strategic in our planning. 2. Proactive in our execution. 3. Member & Community Driven in our direction. 4. Regional in our thinking. 5. Developing Strategic Partnerships with both public and private sector stakeholders, locally, regionally, and nationally, to achieve common goals.

the future sustainability of both our community and our region.

Strategic Plan In 2002 the board adopted a long-range strategic plan, “Taking it to the Next Level.” The plan was developed and implemented in partnership with our strategic partners, inclusive of the City of Arlington, Tarrant County, UT Arlington, Tarrant County College, AISD, Workforce Solutions for Tarrant County, the Arlington Convention and Visitors Bureau, and our ethnic and minority chambers of commerce.

The Chamber’s Evolution

Economic Impact of Our Strategic Plan

The results since 2000? Growth in Arlington’s ad valorem tax base value from $13 billion to $18.2 billion, a 40 percent increase; total jobs grown from 140,947 to 166,738, an 18.3 percent increase; and a rise in median household income from $47,622 to $52,950, an 11 percent increase.

1. Innovation, to position Arlington to compete in a globally competitive, knowledge-based, innovation-driven economy. 2. A Competitive Workforce, to ensure employers have access — today and tomorrow — to a highly skilled, educated, and trained workforce. 3. Business & Community Development, to support business retention and expansion, building a community that will attract the market. 4. Policy & Advocacy, to advocate for a public policy regulatory environment that ensures the sustainability of our community and enhances our mobility.

During the past decade, the Chamber has evolved from the economic political model of the ’90s to become one of the largest business federations in North Texas, regionally and nationally recognized, representing businesses, organizations, and associations that employ more than 60,000 people — one-third of Arlington’s workforce. In 2008, confronted with a global recession and an economy in turmoil, the Chamber Board decided it was time for bold, yet thoughtful, action, approving a significant reorganization of the Chamber to leverage the resources of the business community with our strategic partners, clearly focused on initiatives critical to our community’s sustainability. The outcome? A streamlined organizational structure focused on four strategic initiatives:

Building a Sustainable Community

A

rlington has it all: an excellent location, an educated population, and a welcoming environment for business relocations and expansions of all types. With more than 370,000 residents, Arlington is the third-largest city in North Texas. Strategically located in the center of the North Texas region, Arlington is 16 miles west of downtown Dallas, 16 miles east of downtown Fort Worth, and just eight miles south of DFW International Airport, the third-busiest airport in the world. From Arlington, an employer can tap the labor market of the entire region. Arlington is the entertainment capital of Texas, home of Six Flags Over Texas amusement park and Hurricane Harbor water park, the International Bowling

Museum & Hall of Fame, the Texas Rangers Ballpark in Arlington, and the new $1 billion Cowboys Stadium Complex. Arlington’s geographic location places us in the center of America’s fourthlargest metropolitan region, with UT Arlington being one of the largest of North Texas’ 27 four-year colleges and universities. Drawing on the research capabilities of UT Arlington and our region’s technology-based workforce (second only to Silicon Valley), the Center for Innovation (a joint Chamber–UT Arlington enterprise) is serving as a catalyst for the creation and establishment of technologybased enterprises.

TransportatioN Dallas/Fort Worth International Airport Arlington is only minutes away from Dallas/ Fort Worth International Airport (DFW). In 2009, DFW was the third-busiest airport in the world in total aircraft operations. Just fewer than 60 million passengers and 578,906 tons of cargo passed through DFW in 2009. With its state-of-the-art international terminal and Sky Link system, DFW offers superb access to the entire world. From DFW, an executive can access any major North American business center and return in a single day. From DFW, international shippers have convenient access to Canada, Mexico, and South America.

Arlington Municipal Airport (GKY) The Arlington Municipal Airport is the busiest full-service general aviation “reliever” airport in North Texas and the second-busiest in the state. Owned and operated by the City of Arlington, Runway 16/34 is 6,080 feet by 100 feet with medium-intensity lighting and a full, parallel taxiway. The airport encompasses 500 acres, on which several aviation businesses have been developed. The city owns and manages 96 T-hangars, a 10,000-square-foot maintenance hangar, and 51 tie-down spaces. The airport has a brand-new control tower with an Instrument Landing System (ILS). In April 2010 the airport broke ground on a new $51 million, 17,000-square-foot terminal that will also house the administrative offices.

Highway Network The North Central Texas region is a major interstate highway hub. Two interstates — I-20 and I-30 — pass directly through Arlington. North Texas also has extensive freeway networks that do not carry interstate highway designations. State Highway 360 provides Arlington businesses and residents with direct access to DFW International Airport. The opening of three new bridges and partial reconstruction of I-30 has created direct access to central Arlington, the Entertainment District, and the Retail District. Rail Transportation Arlington offers excellent access to rail transport. A major east–west line of the Union Pacific Railroad passes through the heart of Arlington and serves the Great Southwest Industrial District, the major industrial center of Arlington.


Economic Development

Financial Incentives New and expanding businesses that invest and create employment opportunities in Arlington may be eligible for various types of financial incentives. Some are available through the city, while some are available through other mechanisms. Incentive policies are typically aligned with achieving the economic development goals of the organization offering incentives. The Arlington Chamber of Commerce can assist you in determining which incentives your business may be eligible to receive. For a detailed description of all available incentives, please visit www.championarlington.com.

Tax Abatements The City of Arlington and Tarrant County may grant tax abatements to new or expanding businesses for up to 10 years. Abatements typically range from 25 to 90 percent of the applicable ad valorem tax liability for an investment corresponding to those taxing jurisdictions. Applications for tax abatements are considered on a case-by-case basis. Triple Freeport In 2003 the Arlington Chamber of Commerce proudly announced the exemption of freeport inventory from property taxes by the Arlington Independent School District. AISD joins the city and Tarrant County in exempting inventory that is or will be forwarded out of Texas within 175 days of the date it enters the state. This exemption has created significant cost savings for eligible companies.

Tax Increment Finance (TIF) Districts TIF districts exist to provide a funding mechanism to encourage or expedite development or redevelopment in geographically specific areas. Projects involving the installation of qualifying public improvements may be eligible for reimbursement from a TIF district. The city currently has three TIF districts: Downtown Arlington, Arlington Highlands, and the Lakes of Bird’s Fort.

Economic Development

Industry Clusters As the primary catalyst for Arlington’s economic growth, the Chamber focuses on defining and implementing strategies that will have the greatest impact on Arlington’s sustainability. These initiatives, programs, and activities are developed by industry advisory boards affiliated with the Arlington Chamber Foundation. Our planning process is supported by extensive analysis and research based on an industry cluster model. The alignment of our region’s infrastructure, public policy, workforce, capital resources, and technology capabilities in support of each cluster is crucial. The Chamber’s work to support the growth of our industry clusters is based on input received from our industry advisory boards, which inform our initiatives to strengthen the basic

Arlington Chamber of Commerce

economic foundations that are critical to these industries. Our primary clusters are:

20

Hospitality & Tourism

Health Care/Life Sciences

Professional, Business, Arlington’s well-educated workforce and qual- & Information Services

Tourism is big business in Arlington. The city is home to Six Flags Over Texas, Six Flags Hurricane Harbor, the Texas Rangers Baseball Club, the Dallas Cowboys NFL Football Club, and the International Bowling Museum & Hall of Fame. These major venues are located within Arlington’s Entertainment District, adjacent to I-30 in north Arlington. Millions of visitors are drawn to Arlington every year. The existence of ancillary services such as hotels and restaurants strengthens Arlington’s attractiveness as the family entertainment mecca of North Texas.

ity of life are also attractive to health care and life sciences companies. Many of Arlington’s health care providers have unique capabilities, and many are pioneers in state-of-the-art medical techniques. Arlington’s educational resources are particularly aligned to support this industry. The University of Texas at Arlington’s School of Nursing is home to a “Smart Hospital” — one of the first in the nation — and offers degrees in nursing, from bachelor’s to doctorate. Tarrant County College also offers an associate degree in nursing.

Advanced Manufacturing

Logistics & Distribution

Arlington is home to many companies using advanced manufacturing processes to produce a spectrum of products, including luxury SUVs, outdoor pet kennels, automated postal equipment, precise machine cutting tools, and microchips. A capable and highly skilled workforce and a reliable utility network make Arlington attractive to manufacturing companies. A testament of Arlington’s mature manufacturing industry is the General Motors Assembly Plant, which has been the city’s largest private employer for well over 50 years. The plant was Texas’ first auto assembly facility.

Because of its strategic location in the middle of one of the country’s largest metropolitan areas, with access to multimodal services via air, rail, and highway, Arlington has attracted many companies engaged in logistics and trade. Products stored in Arlington not only enter the local market, but can also be easily shipped worldwide. Auto parts, food stuffs, furniture, hardware, household goods, and office supplies are just a few examples of the types of goods transported in and out of Arlington every day. UT Arlington has taken advantage of the industry and developed a research niche in RFID (Radio Frequency Identification). Local logistics and distribution firms have taken advantage of the new technology.

Businesses in the professional, business, and information services cluster are unique, entrepreneur-oriented companies that are critical to Arlington’s growth. Arlington’s central location in the metroplex allows these companies to access customers through the entire region and draw upon a larger workforce market.

Partnerships The Arlington Chamber of Commerce realizes that the city’s economic sustainability is contingent on the business community working through strategic partnerships, sharing a common vision to make the city a great place for all. Currently, the Chamber works in partnership with the City of Arlington, Tarrant County, UT Arlington, Tarrant County College, Arlington ISD, Workforce Solutions for Tarrant County, the Convention and Visitors Bureau, our ethnic chambers, community-based organizations, and our neighboring communities. All play a vital role in the future success of Arlington.

Center for Innovation

H

istorically, research and technology have been the primary drivers of economic growth. Many technology-led economies are the result of effective partnerships between universities and the private sector, focused on technology transfer from the lab to the marketplace. North Texas, with a population of 6.6 million, boasts the largest technology-trained workforce in the United States, outside of Silicon Valley. The Center for Innovation, LLC, is an affiliate of the Chamber in partnership with UT Arlington, focused on the commercialization of innovation, primarily sourced from technology-based research at the University of Texas at Arlington, the other 26 four-year colleges and universities in North Texas, business and industry in the North Texas region, and the federal lab system.

1. Creating “World Class Deal Flow,” sourced from technology discoveries at UT Arlington, industry, and our national federal labs. 2. Catalyzing a strong, regional venture capital industry. 3. Attracting and retaining the “Talent & Know How” necessary to enable and sustain technology-led economic development in North Texas.

www.arlingtontx.com

The center is primarily focused on three strategic initiatives:

One of the primary goals of the center is to support UT Arlington’s quest to become a nationally recognized Tier 1 Research University. Since the center’s inception in 2001, UT Arlington’s externally funded research has grown from $24.3 million to $66.6 million. More than $250 million has been secured to enhance and expand research facilities, attracting and recruiting more than 100 new research-oriented faculty and resulting in growth in invention disclosures from two to 60 annually, with 11 new startup companies established. Ultimately, the center will enhance our regional competitiveness and support the long-term development of sustainable regional economics, linking universities and industry in the transfer and commercialization of technology. The following are components of the Center for Innovation. Collectively, they are focused on aligning their resources to foster the development of a technology-led economy.

One of the primary goals of the center is to support UT Arlington’s quest to become a nationally recognized Tier 1 Research University.

UT Arlington Office of Technology Management The center houses the UT Arlington Office of Technology Management, its Grant and Contract Division, and its Research Division, enabling the center to effectively facilitate the interaction necessary to introduce leading-edge university research into the private sector.

University Research Initiatives

Arlington Chamber of Commerce

In November 2002, the university established the Institute for Nanoscale Science and Engineering Research and Teaching, which brought together six UT Arlington research facilities in the colleges of Science and Engineering to provide a coordinated approach for effective tech transfer, including:

22

1. NanoFab Research and Teaching Facility (the only one of its kind in Texas, and among the first nationally). 2. Automation and Robotics Research Institute. 3. Materials Science and Engineering Laboratories. 4. Chemistry Research Building. 5. Research laboratories. 6. Future Center for Nanostructured Materials.

The second UT Arlington strategic development is a companion institute, the Bioscience and Bioengineering Center, which is focused on the interface of biotechnology, informatics, nanoscience, and genomics R&D through cooperative research, joint grant request applications, and directed technology transfer.

World’s Best Technologies Innovation Marketplace The Center for Innovation hosts the World’s Best Technologies Innovation Marketplace every March, produced in association with the National Nanotechnology Initiative, the Federal Lab Consortium for Technology Transfer, and the National Association of Seed and Venture Funds. The purpose is to develop relationships with sources of early-stage venture capital and to position the region as an emerging player in the commercialization of technology research. Annually, the event attracts more than 600 participants, including 120 venture funds and 100 viable early-stage technology acquisitions, representing 37 states and 20 foreign countries.

TechComm TechComm, a new federal partnership intermediary established in 2010, represents a coalition of government agencies and their federal

labs, as well as industry, academic, corporate, and venture capital partners. TechComm connects the partners to the participating federal agencies and labs, fosters a bridge between federal resources and state support, and enables technology transfer and commercialization. The TechComm network is supported by the TechComm Innovation Management System (TIMS), a Web-based portal linking the databases and search engines of its partners with strong protocols that allow effective search across the network while safeguarding confidential data. This linkage between federal labs, industry, and research-oriented universities provides a collaborative communication environment that enables industry to identify federal lab-discovered technologies that can be commercialized through patent license agreements. It also affords industry and academia the opportunity to look at the federal lab research road map, enabling them to align their research with federal research priorities through cooperative research and development agreements. In “bottom line” terms, the TechComm network is linking industry with federal labdiscovered research, enabling the movement of technologies out of the federal labs into the marketplace to save and create jobs.

Business & Community Development

The Arlington Chamber’s goal is to help Chamber members grow their business. This is achieved through business retention and expansion assistance, procurement and international trade opportunities, and quality, value-added membership services. The Chamber’s programs and services are designed to help a business achieve a higher level of business growth and improved business capacity. Neighborhood business councils in North and South Arlington also help address common business concerns in these two sectors of the city. In addition to these efforts, the Chamber also promotes community redevelopment through the Arlington Redevelopment Corporation. The Chamber receives its direction from advisory councils representing small and large businesses and from key stakeholders who facilitate business growth. Hundreds of volunteer members provide input and direction. Business & Community Development initiatives include the following:

The cornerstone of the Chamber’s business and retention efforts is the “Grow Arlington” Program, which identifies existing businesses that have the potential to grow through additional capital investment and/or increased employment opportunities. Vital to the program’s success is support from key stakeholders. The “Grow Arlington” Program provides an additional value-added service to our members.

International Trade Initiative International trade opportunities represent a critical market for business growth in today’s competitive global economy. The International Trade Initiative provides Chamber members the knowledge and knowhow to pursue trade opportunities, develop relationships with foreign trade organizations, and provide business-to-business opportunities in the

global market. International trade stakeholders provide input and support to local international trade endeavors. Members of the Arlington Chamber can obtain Certificates of Origin, which are sometimes required for international shipments. Certificates of Origin are provided for a minimal fee per request to members.

Procurement Assistance Initiative Helping local small businesses and service providers sell to larger local corporations is the basic aim of the Chamber’s procurement program. Members of the Chamber have the privilege of gaining access to a procurement portal within our website to access up-to-date procurement opportunities from large companies and entities such as the City of Arlington, UT Arlington, and many of its large corporate members.

Affinity Partners & Member Discount Programs The Chamber works to reduce our members’ cost of doing business through value-added, member-exclusive discount and affinity programs. Members who take advantage of these benefits increase profits by driving traffic to their businesses and decrease their day-to-day bottom line expenses. These programs also provide our members with a quick return on their investment with the Chamber.

Arlington Redevelopment Corporation The Arlington Redevelopment Corporation is a 501c(3) affiliate of the Chamber with its own board of directors. The corporation’s overall goal is to serve as the catalyst for redevelopment efforts in Downtown Arlington and to provide a vehicle for innovative financing options to minimize the private investor’s cost risk. The Redevelopment Corporation promotes a reinvigoration of the economic development of the downtown area through quality residential and mixed-use developments.

Small Business Awards & Luncheon Small business represents the backbone of our local economy. In May, the Chamber is host to the Annual Small Business Awards Luncheon, recognizing our region’s small-business leaders.

Education & Workforce Development In today’s globally integrated, innovation-driven, knowledge-based economy, access to a highly educated, skilled, and trained workforce is vital to a community’s competitiveness. Aligning our educational and publicly funded workforce development systems with business and industry demand is critical to our success. The Chamber is focused on building a quality employer workforce, working in partnership with public and higher educational institutions and the publicly funded workforce system to support academic achievement, educational attainment, and curriculum alignment. Collaboration between the Chamber, the University of Texas at Arlington, Tarrant County College, the AISD, and Workforce Solutions for Tarrant County brings educators and businesses together for the betterment of all. Key partners and initiatives include the following:

The Chamber works with the Arlington Independent School District to link business and education, preparing students for a world of opportunity; to communicate AISD’s services and accomplishments to our community; and to enhance the educational attainment levels of students in our public education system. Technology and global competition make it imperative that we focus on initiatives to prepare our youth for success, now and in the future. The Chamber also serves as a conduit of information between the district and employers, helping identify and develop educational programs to meet business workforce needs.

Tarrant County College The Chamber works closely with Tarrant County College District and its Southeast Campus through the Career, Workforce, and Corporate Services departments, serving on advisory committees and engaging in collaborative efforts to aid employers with training needs for their existing and emerging workforce.

Center for Continuing Education and Workforce Development At the national level, the Chamber earned recognition for the Center for Continuing Education and Workforce Development, located on the UT Arlington campus, and served as the lead applicant for the center’s selection as one of 12 sites for the Workforce Innovation Networks Project (WINs), launched in 1997 by the U.S. Department of Labor, the U.S. Chamber of Commerce, Jobs for the Future, and the National Association of Manufacturers. The Chamber worked with 11 other national pilot sites to develop replicable, sustainable, model networks of local and state employer associations and employer-led organizations to act as effective workforce intermediaries. directly from the Arlington Independent School District. It also serves as a forum for the district to hear from business and community leaders about their concerns and gives the superintendent the opportunity to directly speak to the business community.

Regional Initiatives

Arlington Chamber of Commerce

Regional Workforce Leadership Council The Chamber works in partnership with the Fort Worth and Dallas chambers of commerce and our three local workforce development boards to meet the region’s workforce needs in high-demand areas. Employers, educators, and workforce development professionals exchange ideas and information that help each industry cluster meet the challenge of developing a quality workforce in our region. Target industry clusters have been formed to identify critical workforce needs in each industry. The clusters in development now are aerospace, health care, logistics, and semiconductor. Others will develop as interest and champions are found.

Youth Opportunity Center The center serves as a model for the nation on how an employer-driven workforce system can operate.

American Recovery and Reinvestment Act The American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009 (Recovery Act) was signed into law by President Obama on February 17, 2009. It is an unprecedented effort to jump-start our economy, create or save millions of jobs, and put a down payment on addressing long-neglected challenges so our country can thrive in the 21st century. The act is an extraordinary response to a crisis unlike any since the Great Depression and includes measures to modernize our nation’s

infrastructure, enhance energy independence, expand educational opportunities, preserve and improve affordable health care, provide tax relief, and protect those in greatest need.

The Chamber works with the U.S. Department of Labor in two key ways in the Recovery Act effort: 1. To provide worker training for these jobs. 2. To ease the burden of the recession on workers and employers by providing extended and expanded unemployment benefits and assisting and educating them regarding expanded access to continued health benefits. The Chamber also works with the U.S. Department of Education, with overall recovery efforts aimed at stimulating the economy in the short-term and investing wisely, using funds to improve schools, raise achievement, drive reforms, and produce better results for children and young people for the long-term health of our nation.

Logistics & Distribution Grant In the fall of 2007, the Chamber secured a oneyear, $250,000 grant from the Texas Workforce Commission for logistics and distribution technology research and commercialization. Partnering with American Airlines, DFW International Airport, and General Motors, the Chamber engaged the University of Texas at Arlington’s College of Engineering to identify and research new and emerging technologies designed to improve competitiveness and develop North Texas’ capacity as a world-class logistics and distribution center. These projects represent sustainable, replicable, and scalable models of workforce development, relative to logistics and distribution.

rlington’s rich and colorful history can be traced back to when Native Americans were the first inhabitants. During late Colonial times, Caddo tribe members were the primary residents, with as many as 25,000 living in the area now known as West Arlington. Maj. Jonathan Bird started construction of Bird’s Fort in 1841, beginning Anglo settlement efforts. Another nearby settlement included Johnson Station, a stage stop and trading post. Sam Houston declared that the area was to serve as a dividing line between settlers and the Native American tribes. The Republic of Texas signed its first peace treaty here in 1843, with nine tribal representatives present. In 1875, the Texas and Pacific Railroad attempted to build a new line west from Dallas to Fort Worth; Johnson Station was to be the stop in between. However, since the owner of the targeted land didn’t want a train going through his property, a site three miles north was chosen. Eventually, the new station was called Arlington, in honor of Gen. Robert E. Lee’s home in Virginia. On July 19, 1876, the first train roared through the new community, and on April 19, 1884, Arlington became a city.

Arlington Living Residential Markets and Neighborhoods Arlington has come a long way from its beginnings but has never lost its solid small-town values. Already the fourth-largest metropolitan area in the country, with 6.6 million residents, North Texas is drawing 100,000 new residents annually, creating a booming housing market. Yet the cost of living in Arlington is only about 94 percent of the national average; housing prices are approximately 70 percent of the national average. The city’s active housing market and diverse neighborhoods offer safe and affordable choices for everyone. The average asking price for homes in Arlington is $145,000. In a recent Coldwell Banker real estate survey, the average price for a 2,400-square-foot home with four bedrooms, 2.5 baths, and a two-car garage was $139,510. Arlington offers city services that are second to none. The crime rate for the city is well below the national average and continues to drop.

Convenient access to schools, shopping centers, parks, and lakes, along with amenities such as jogging and biking trails, sports leagues, and golf courses, provide an excellent quality of life for the entire family.

Commercial and Retail — “Business Is Booming” Businesses locating in Arlington definitely have an edge when it comes to transport. In addition to a solid transportation network that includes two interstate highways — I-20 and I-30 — and the booming market of the region, Arlington enjoys close proximity to DFW International Airport. Internationally known companies such as National Semiconductor, Siemens, and General Motors are part of the industrial base in Arlington. Hospitality and retail couldn’t ask for a better location. Justly known as the “Entertainment Capital of Texas,” Arlington draws more than 6 million visitors each year to such attractions as Six Flags Over Texas, Six Flags Hurricane Harbor, Johnnie High’s Country Music Revue, and Texas Rangers baseball. In 2008 the U.S. Bowling Congress and Bowling Hall of Fame relocated to Arlington, and in 2009, Arlington became the home of the Dallas Cowboys’ new 90,000-seat, domed and air-conditioned stadium.

Founded in 1965, TCC offers academic courses and programs that cover more than 80 technical and transfer areas, including business, child development/education/teaching, computer science, radio and television broadcasting, journalism, music, and speech/communication. Associate degrees prepare students for transfer to four-year schools as well as for immediate entry into the workforce in fields such as aviation, automotive, information technology, nursing, allied health, police and fire safety, hospitality, dietetics, and railroad operations. The Associate of Arts in Teaching Degree also eases the transition for students transferring to a four-year baccalaureate degree, while helping to alleviate the state’s teacher shortage. One of the newest programs at TCC is a comprehensive Weekend College, through which students can complete their core curriculum entirely through weekend courses offered Fridays, Saturdays, and Sundays. TCC students have additional opportunities to study and learn in many different venues, including day, evening, short-term, and distance-learning courses.

Solving Real-World Problems UT Arlington attracts bright minds and independent thinkers who achieve distinction in the community, the classroom, and the research laboratory. In fact, the university’s research has more than doubled from just seven years ago. This means real-world research addressing real-world needs. For instance: • Engineers in the Nanotechnology Research and Teaching Facility are manipulating individual atoms and molecules that could herald the next electronics revolution. • Psychology professors are studying areas of the brain that, through proper drug management techniques, decrease the perception of pain. • Interdisciplinary researchers working at UT Arlington’s Center for Healthy Living and Longevity are discovering new ways for people to control high blood pressure, increase self-esteem through innovative physical education programs, and decrease frailty and falls in the elderly.

At 49,108 students, TCC’s fall 2010 enrollment was up 11 percent over the previous year. Setting enrollment records has become the norm at TCC. Since 2000, fall credit enrollment has jumped 83 percent — more than 20,000 students. TCC’s academic excellence, focused on student access and success, and tuition that’s lower than at neighboring universities help keep enrollment high. During the past year, continuing-education programs served 36,000 additional students through programs designed for individuals, families, and businesses. Nearly 4,000 students enrolled in the Senior Education Program, taking a variety of classes on all TCC campuses. On the other end of the age spectrum, 4,526 children participated in TCC’s popular summer 2010 enrichment program, College for Kids. Encouraging inquiry and exploration, the program’s experienced faculty is committed to providing academic and creative education for high-achieving students in first through eighth grades.
