Downtown will really be busy during the Super Bowl. The Dallas Convention Center is having the Largest NFL Experience ever! The NFL experience will be over 850,000 sq ft.
go to google maps, type in Lyttle Texas (it is on the southern edge of Bexar). Then do directions from there to Jarrell Texas and see what you get. In fact there is more to Williamson county past Jarrel, but I can't think of another city past it.
But yeah from Bexar to Williamson include 150 miles
Lytle is in Atascosa and Jarrel is in on the border of Bell county and it's 140 miles, but you are going way beyond the urbanized areas. The urbanization is 100 miles long from San Antonio to georgetown which is the Austin-San Antonio Corridor.
Shut up. Just shut up. I made this thread for intelligent conversations, I last posted in this thread, I go to my home page, click on my last few posts and see there's a response in this thread, go to it, and all I see are hicks battling over Dallas population growth because of trains.
I am not a hick! The definition of a Hick is a person raised in a rural area. I was born in a city called Dallas.

you are promoting infill and a dense compact area. It attracts business, which means more jobs, and more jobs mean more people.
and the second rail I posted is the system in Paris. It certainly doesn't serve a small area. It does push into the suburbs but the area is already crazy dense.
again I am not saying that rail to the burbs is bad. all I am doing is arguing against the poster's point that DART will help Dallas with infill. I think it will help de fill
It is actually helping Dallas infill as now most of it's growth is by new developments on the rail or in highrises throughout Uptown, Turtle Creek, and w/e this decade. Once the economy picks up, I expect more TOD's to be built around these stations.
