Austin finally cracked 800,000.

We're next, but we really have to focus on the core.

I think Dallas was denser than Houston for a brief moment sometime last decade round late 2004/early 2005ish. It may be slightly denser now, but it more than likely won't stay that way for long. Houston's city limits usually grow at a much faster rate than Dallas's.

That is really a small margin anyway. We're talking about 12 -15 more ppsm? But enjoy your small victory... for now!
