population of approximately 160,000. A close knit community with a
school/park system, Amarillo is a very friendly area with many cultural
opportunities including opera, ballet, symphony, art museum, historical
museums, quarter horse museum, zoo, and amusement park. Possessing 95% of
the world's helium supply, the city is a wealth of opportunity in terms of
industry with helium, natural gas, mining, cattle and banking as some of
the top businesses. Assimilation into the community is made easy by the
renowned "southern hospitality" Texans are so well known for.
