Pearland ranks first among Texas retail cities in retail growth for Third consecutive Year
For the third consecutive year, Pearland is ranked the fastest growing among Texas’ 50 largest retail markets, according the Texas Retail Survey, which ranks cities based on annual retail sales growth rate for the previous five years.
“Pearland has seen a tremendous amount of retail growth in recent years and these numbers are evident of this growth,” said Matt Buchanan, president of the Pearland Economic Development Corporation. “We have
had outstanding developers construct multiple shopping centers that have been successful in making Pearland a regional shopping destination.” The study compared retail market growth rates for the 50 largest city retail markets in Texas, ranked by the average five-year percentage growth in retail sales from 2006 - 2011. During that five-year period, Pearland was the fastest growing retail market at 9.2 percent. Other local cities in the Top 50 include #10 - Houston (4.1%), #27 - Sugar Land (2.6%), #27 - Pasadena (2.3%), #35 - Conroe (1.3%) and #36 - Baytown (1.2%). Pearland’s strong retail centers including Pearland Town Center by CBL & Associates (937,000 SF), Silverlake Village (750,000 SF), the Crossing at 518 by Cencor (500,000 SF) and Shadow Creek Ranch Town Center by AmREIT (616,000 SF) have certainly contributed to the commu-nity’s strong retail growth. Recent developments, such as the Sam’s Club that opened last year in the Reserve at Shadow Creek Ranch and Burlington Coat Factory, demonstrate the continued strength of the retail market in Pearland. For additional information or to preview the 2012 Edition of the Texas Retail Survey, please visit TexasRetailSurvey.com.

Rodeo Art Displayed at Commerce CenterThe Pearland Chamber of Commerce has been displaying the works of local artists since 2009. The Commerce Center Art Display, started by President & CEO, Carol Artz-Bucek, was a vision to preserve and promote local art in Pearland.This January through the end of March, the Pearland Chamber of Commerce will display the 2013 Rodeo Art of the students from Pearland Independent School District.
The Houston Livestock Show and Rodeo School Art Program currently hosts competitions in approximately 100 public independent school districts and 60 private schools within 120 miles of the city of Houston. Each year, about 300,000 students, grades Pre-K through 12th, participate in this program, which showcases the culture, history and heritage of the West. These talented individuals express their vision of western life and rodeo through their paintings, drawings, and paper mache sculptures. They are judged on their creativity, quality, and technique. New art is displayed quarterly and available for viewing to the public. The art will be available for display Monday through Friday from 8:30 am to 5:00 pm.
Thanks to everyone that attended our annual banquet and meeting. It was a huge success due to our sponsors and volunteer leadership. I think everyone in attendance had a wonderful evening. If you didn’t have a chance to come this year start planning now to come next year, because we would really love to see you. Carol Artz-Bucek

I am pleased to announce that as of January 1, 2013, The Legacy Group has become a part of David L. Smith Realty, allowing me to begin the next chapter of the company’s life and continuing the tenets upon which David L. Smith Realty was founded in 1960 by my parents, David and Frankie Smith.
Having served the Pearland area since its inception, David L. Smith Realty has been committed to providing the best possible real estate practices as prescribed by the Canon of Ethics of the Texas Real Estate Commission. Those ethics will never be compromised and the addition of The Legacy Group will allow us to serve our clients in a more efficient manner.
I am excited to begin a new journey and look forward to working with the people in the greater Pearland area.
Sincerely,Susan S. LenamonBroker/Owner

Did you know? Diet sodas are just as bad as
regular soda. Do yourself a favor
and skip them all together, and
replace them with water.
Torch major calories by doing
interval training! Mix up high- and
low-intensity exercises over 30-45
minutes.
Fat doesn’t make you fat, sugar
makes you fat! Watch your intake
of sugar and you will lose weight.
Snacking isn’t bad for you.
Snacking on junk food is what
gives snacking a bad name. Try
fruit or vegetables with a protein
like apples & 1 oz of peanut butter.
Having a hard time figuring out serving sizes? If you use restaurant portions as your guide, you’ll be out in left field when trying to determine what the new dietary guidelines mean when recommending 7-10 servings of fruits and vegetables, 6-8 serv-ings of grains, and 2-3 servings of low-fat dairy.
Use these springtime symbols to help make sure you are enjoying nutritious foods for good health and weight control. Each item is equal to 1 serving.
2 tsp peanut butter = 1 peep
¼ cup dried fruit = 1 golf ball
½ cup cooked rice, pasta or cereal = 1 tennis ball

1 cup milk or yogurt = 1 baseball
½ cup cooked or raw cut up fruits or vegetables = 2 peeps
1 cup leafy vegetables = 2 tennis balls
1 small muffin = 2 peeps
1 ounce lean meat or fish = 1 egg
