Nacogdoches — The Nacogdoches County economy is booming and, experts say it'll continue for years to come.

Tom Ma, owner of "Ma's Jewelry" in Nacogdoches, says he opened up his shop back in 1989. In that time, he's seen his business grow and prosper.

But now as other businesses look to move into that area we asked him, out of all the places to do business why does he continue to stay in nacogdoches?

Ma tells KETK, "Nacogdoches is a great city, friendly, treat people right, they treat you right."
