Texas' Military Installations Economic Impact, 2019

The Texas Comptroller of Public Accounts analyzed the economic impact of the state's 14 U.S. military installations, representing a variety of reserve and active duty bases of various sizes. This impact analysis on the Texas economy was at the request of the Texas Military Preparedness Commission (TMPC) and reflects data specific to 2019.

During the Spring of 2020, the TMPC assisted the Comptroller in collecting data using a survey designed to ensure consistency in determining the total direct and indirect contribution of the base’s populations to state-level employment, gross domestic product, output and disposable personal income.
