One more thing that's emerging in Raleigh is the nation's largest, and arguably most important current park project to the south of its downtown. It's going to be transforming in phases throughout the next decade.
I have a question. With all these cities set to take off in the 2020s. Can this be a bad thing for some cities? As in they aren't prepared for the population influx. Example- Raleigh schools seem to be very overcrowded. Competition for admission to universities is overwhelming. They don't have the public transportation to accommodate people.

I-4 in Orlando agrees with you. The thing is an absolute mess right now, and is the result of poor planning and an unexpected growth in the region. Gotta love driving on this https://www.google.com/maps/@28.5296...7i16384!8i8192 for miles in rush hour traffic.
And +1 on the public transportation issue. Big cities need that, and it seems as though lots of these more modern American cities haven't prepared for that.
Where are the Ohio cities in the list? They may not be East Coast. Still much cheaper in their whole metros. Could help them as new boomers... more if the tide turns northward for cheaper housing.
Metro home prices are radical not in some darling cities seen as Hip and all knew and yes, Corporate America helping boost them. Add just enough being with milder winter cities.
I believe besides a Philly to Baltimore having the cheaper yet. The Midwest is next and Ohio cities easily could be a later 2020's new darlings if the South bubbles did not fully burst and the West.
Just compare housing by a few months ago.
The median price of a home in Austin during the third quarter was $498,400, up 33.5% from a year ago. In Charlotte, North Carolina, the median price was $363,500, up 17.4%, and in Raleigh, the median rose 19.8% to $403,500.
the median sales price of a home in Greater Columbus from July through September was $286,300, well below even the national median of $363,700.
Once Corporate America looks northward more again. The tide may turn even for the Midwest. Not taking anything away from Philly already in more growth especially from NYC. Some boast of gaining tech $$$ as true. Still Ohio is seen as a more pro-business Midwest state.
Short of a housing crash again. I see much hope for the North despite our winters. Claims of even Upstate NY cities picking up steam I read.
I honestly think it's gonna be San Antonio. Just because it has high growth and when it does hit 3,000,000 people it will be the only city in that range currently under 300,000 per home (assuming home prices don't suddenly collapse). Saint Louis is currently the only city significantly cheaper within a couple hundred thousand of 3,000,000 people. San Antonio also has the benefit of being in Texas.
I'd be surprised. It's already growing fast, and while I haven't spent much time there, it seems like the city isn't really interested in upzoning outside the downtown, and rents are already high and still skyrocketing. I don't see how its 2020s growth will be higher than in the '00s and '10s, and I think it'll actually slow significantly later in the decade.
It would help the city's appeal if ID legalized pot (not infeasible, MT and AK have and it looks like SD is about to). If the suburbs keep growing and are able to maintain non-insane housing costs, I could see West Coast corporations moving some of their operations there, which would help with further growth and expansion of the airport.
