Labor Shed
“The City of Waller has less than 4000 population, but we draw from a large workforce population living within the average Houston commute of 30-minutes. This slide from Workforce Solutions shows the geography of that commute. Our laborshed includes a population of 1.4 million people with 480,000 of those being in the prime workforce age of 25-54 years old.
The population of the closest ISDs to our east (Cy-Fair) and south (Katy) are larger than many American cities and Waller is an easy commute for them to work. This gives us a very large educated workforce to draw from for the City of Waller.
Workforce Training
In addition, there are numerous resources in the region to help support your workforce through training. For more information, visit the Waller County workforce pages.
