In this new world of sub 3% growth, Austin is lucky to have this problem. The only thing worse than getting pushed out of an area because of it's success, is no success at all--especially for a younger generation who just wants to make a go life. There are boom towns in every generation.
- doseofreality 11y agoMaybe, but no growth towns like Austin was in the late 80s/early 90s are pretty great for younger people who aren't all that concerned about making "a go at life."
