Great parable.
You can say that about any town that is thriving and growing...including Houston.
Yes Austin has a lot of great things going for it but do not let them kid you, almost all of them are from someplace else. Originally Posted by The2Dogs

I am a native of Houston and have never once bitched about the prosperity of the city and the surrounding areas. I love the toll roads, I understand the pains of growth and know how to avoid the traffic. I can get anywhere I want and never have to get on the freeways or I can take them with full knowledge that when school starts the freeway will be loaded with freshmen going to the many colleges and universities the city has to offer. I love the explosive growth and all that goes with it. If you are in Houston and not working it is because you do not want to work.
No it is not all the same. Originally Posted by The2Dogs

We've seen the city more than double in size over the past twenty years.
And the cultural growth is unparalleled in America.
