Of note is that DFW has 7.60 Fortune 1000 companies per 1 million residents. Much higher than San Antonio-Austin, at 2.60, but less than Houston, with 8.8 Fortune 1000 per 1 million residents. Interstingly, also, is the fact the the Metroplex has just 1 company in the top 100, but it's a real giant, #2 Exxon Mobil. .:.
