Houston tops the ranking as the friendliest city for foreign investors

Houston, Texas has emerged as the top-ranking city for foreign investors to park their money, surpassing last year's winner, Miami. Houston's success can be attributed to its industrial and molecular transformation, driven by historic industrial policies that support production in semiconductors and clean energy. The city offers a friendly business environment with low taxes and favorable labor laws, while also being an affordable place to live. Houston excels in categories like foreign business needs, boasting one of the busiest airports and seaports in the US, and a strong working-age and college-educated population.
