Why is New York state so special? There's so many other states that are far more business friendly than New York. New York actually might have among the highest tax rates of all US states. This confounds the mind.

Regardless, I'm not going to complain about high tech manufacturing jobs anywhere in the USA.

Shipping to Europe could be a reason. New York is by the Atlantic. I am sure they worked out a tax break to manufacturer in NY.

Its got to be a tax break. Houston's port is also huge and jobs/people/taxes are all better there.

Freight overseas to Houston is more than California. There has to be a reason for the east coast.
