No career choice is 'safe', as any path is always met with the challenges and threats of change. However, you just stated that you love the constant changes in web development, and that's a valuable attribute to have.

In my opinion, the future of web development is a bright one. According to the Occupational Outlook Handbook by the US Bureau of Labor Statistics, the job outlook from 2012 to 2022 has 20% more growth than the average.
