DALLAS - The Wall Street Journal says the Dallas-Fort Worth area could be a favorite to win Amazon’s second headquarters.
The paper looked at factors Amazon wants for the $5 billion complex. They included cost of living, the number of universities nearby, taxes, proximity to a major international airport and the culture.
Dallas scored well on taxes, cost of living and the labor force.
The newspaper listed other top contenders as Boston and Washington D.C. Austin was No. 7 on the list.
