Once a gambling empire, the establishment of NASA’s Johnson Space Center in 1963 created new growth opportunities for the county municipalities near Clear Lake and Harris County. The Clear Lake area communities in Harris and Galveston Counties quickly became more tied toward each other while the island of Galveston languished for many years as businesses increasingly left for the mainland.
Tourism, has gradually redeveloped in the county, both on the island and on the mainland, and today has become a major industry in the county. Aerospace and related service industries continue to be important in the Clear Lake area of the county.
