    Boomtown is not an affectionate term. There are many ghost towns in Texas, which were once oil "boomtowns". The fact that developers won't stop building these huge buildings while businesses are moving out is a warning sign of a slowing economy if you ask me.

    Because the expenses, taxes and the crime rates are higher now.

      Fun Fact, Austin is slowly turning into a Democratic S-hole.

      @soon Austin is so dysfunctional now it can't even mimic San Francisco. We used to have a version of the trolley car downtown and they got rid of them.

    I’d think it be cool if they turned some empty spaces to communal studio spaces where podcasters and photographers could have studio spaces to use.
    But people hate the arts so… 😢

    Vacancy rate is a bit lower but housing is much much more expensive there and it's much more of a boom town than dallas and houston in terms of tech startups and migrants from out of state.

    They need to turn them into housing. The price of housing close to DT is insane. Remote work isn't going anywhere these talking heads need to smarten up. Office space is for dinosaurs

      It'll be cool if it happens, and they're forced to rent out office spaces as living spaces for really cheap.
