Obviously having a large source of potential jobs is one of the key items for making a great place to live. It is difficult to have a nice home and life without having the ability to find employment. Fort Bend County Texas is number 5 on the CNN Money list of the 25 top counties for finding a job. Katy and the surrounding areas with Katy mailing addresses can have a home located in Fort Bend County or Harris County or Waller county. Fort Bend county benefits from the major energy firms andengineering firms having large offices in the Houston and surrounding areas. In addition, the areas west of Houston in both Fort Bend county and Harris county benefit from significant medical facilities being moved into the area.
