From what I've gathered is we are dealing with a shortage of construction workers and it's not just in Austin but other Texas cities as well. It's so bad that some sites have security guards during the day to keep contractors from "poaching" workers by offering them better pay.
It may not be the only reason but I have a feeling it's a big one.
