COLLEGE STATION - The official "Home of the 12th Man" is home to a lot of U-Haul do-it-yourself movers.
The U-Haul Top Ten U.S. Growth Cities for 2015 placed College Station at No. 6, with the growth rankings determined by the net gain of incoming one-way U-Haul truck rentals versus outgoing rentals for the past calendar year.
Texas A&M University is the city’s largest employer and centerpiece of the College Station-Bryan metro area with an enrollment of nearly 60,000 students.
The housing and jobs sectors have been on the upswing in College Station adding appeal to the area at a time when other Texas cities have been hurt by the slumping oil sector.
U-Haul locations in College Station saw 53.7 percent of truck rental customers coming into the city as opposed leaving, and welcomed 1 percent more U-Haul arrivals and departures year-over-year.
