The city centers are 75 miles apart. That's a lot of land in between. I've been to both a couple dozen times and its just too far away to think they are melding. Austin's southern metro edge is San Marcos which is still 50 miles north of San Antonio.
I mean the metro areas are growing like wildfire. There's only a few miles of open land between San Marcos (Austin MSA) & New Braunfels (San Antonio MSA) and the gap is shorting every year.
I'm pretty sure that Miami has had the largest transformation at the largest scale since 2005. When looking at all the transformations throughout the entire Austin and Miami urban areas the differences in the scale becomes even more apparent.

I totally agree that it is punching above its weight. With a population around 300,000 people, Jersey City has more than double the skycrapers than cities like Phoenix (1.7 million), San Antonio (1.4 million), Jacksonville, FL (800k-ish), and many more.
Jersey City has a superb skyline that continues to grow. Granted, the major reason is due to its proximity across the Hudson from Manhattan, but still, it is really impressive for its size.
Could you imagine Phoenix skyline if it was right across the hudson from NYC ?
*undercounts are unfortunately a possibility, due to data errors on the sites, but each city should be very close to being correct, with the information given.
Tampa Bay has 23 so it seems like it should have made the list?
