Texas has one of the nation's fastest-growing Middle Eastern populations, and most of the state's immigrants live in Houston, according to a study based on census data.

Researchers at the Center for Immigration Studies say Texas' Middle Eastern population more than doubled in the last decade, to just over 100,000, including more than 52,000 in Greater Houston.

Yikes!

I was talking to the owner of a Houston radio station the other day. He says Houston has the largest concentration of mid-eastern media people in America. By that he meant those who work for mid-eastern companies.

FYI, the single largest concentration of middle-easterners in the US can be found in NYC....all driving taxicabs..
