Boomtown USA: Stillwater

Of all the jobs created over the last three years, more than a third were started in small towns. Those non-metro areas that are supposed to be losing jobs not gaining them. This emerging trend is bringing educated and entrprenuerial people into towns that tend to offer a better quality of life. They are called ag-burbs, towns that have a historic tie to agriculture, but have expanded into other industries as well. We visit one such ag-burb, Stillwater, Oklahoma.
