From what I understand, yes.

Tbh, Dayton’s also 25 miles closer which plays a much larger role in that corridor being developed than physical size. I still think it’s comparable. Even Baltimore-Washington is out of reach and DFW, MSP or Seattle-Tacoma is a completely different beast. Austin-San Antonio even with how linear Austin is would need High Speed Rail and 10,000,000 people between them to truly be a unified region, at 80 miles. Or maybe if San Marcos and New Braunfels take of to the level of Killeen/Waco/College Station-Bryan we can talk about a unified region.

I give it 25 years and they'll be bustling cities on their own. Those and Kyle and Buda, basically everything north of Schertz.

New Braunfels is already there. New Braunfels might have 200,000 people by 2030 at this rate. You have no idea how fast NB is growing. They just announced another 6,000 house development (on top of the thousands currently going in now everywhere).

New Braunfels went from 36,000 in 2000 to 91,000 in the 2019 estimate. It might be over 100,000 when the census numbers come out (if they haven't already, I haven't checked).

EDIT: I just read New Braunfels population is now 102,000 according to the latest estimate. I think the census number is still waiting to come out.

New Braunfels is the second fastest growing city in the US, behind only Frisco, TX.
