care to share any sources? or did you just make this up?
- wonderwonder 5y agoMake what up, The Tesla link? I just asked the question, I have no info either way, notice I said "Wonder if".
- nodicksplease 5y ago> rapidly approaching sf status. That should be a quantifiable metric?
- wonderwonder 5y agoAustin has seen a 40+ % increase in tech jobs in a decade and has recently attracted major companies like Tesla and oracle to headquarter there while the majority of FAANG companies are building large campuses there. This site does a pretty good job: https://sfciti.org/sf-tech-exodus/ https://sfciti.org/sf-tech-exodus/ Article from the SF Chronicle: https://www.sfchronicle.com/bayarea/article/Austin-COVID-tech-migration-silicon-valley-16315291.php https://www.sfchronicle.com/bayarea/article/Austin-COVID-tec... Hopefully that addresses your question as to why I hold this opinion.
- shmatt 5y agoYes, they made it up According to wikipedia/some google-fu SV has just above double the high tech jobs as Austin
- distribot 5y agoThat would be way more high tech jobs in Austin per capita.
- wonderwonder 5y agoAccording to wikipedia/some google-fu Silicon Valley has a population of ~ 3 million people while Austin has a population of just under a million. Your numbers support my comment that you say I "Just made up"
