The population growth between the two was essentially the same with Houston closing the gap by a tiny 21,000.
2010 census results show the Dallas MSA at 6,371,773 and Houston MSA at 5,946,800 - a difference of 424,973 people.
That is still a very large difference by any measure and closing it by a mere 21,000 people over a 10 year period is basically meaningless and represents a statistically insignificant change.

Of course, this is if Houston doesn't gain a single resident from the hallenge (no ity in DFW is having a challenge). IIRC, nearly 100K people were missed in the East Houston area. I doubt Houston will gain all of that, but at least half most likely.

It doesnt matter in reality. You would have to give Dallas and every other city in the United States the benefit of a doubt if you give one city the benefit of a doubt. Dallas is chalk full of poor minorities like Houston. These are appearently the people who were missed.

Nope. Did the Census miss entire tracts of land (apartments, etc.) in Dallas like they did for Houston? Wouldn't the City of Dallas be challenging if that were the case? All cities have missed minorities, but not all had entire tracts of land from the Census saying no one lived there, when in fact they did. Not to mention the section of the city had never lost population in it's history, but all of a sudden, no one lives there. Two different things.
Lawd good for H-Town they added 20,000 more residents according to the census. Houston is by far the superior city and metro in Texas. Its going to leave DFW behind.

In all seriousness they need each other if Texas is truly going to compete.
I'm pretty sure I was, too.
