I apologize for my quotes around the metroplex in my post. In retrospect it was quite judgmental from the eyes of a suburban New Yorker whose metro area covers small parts of three states.
I cop to ignorance of your community's overall dynamics. As I said before, maybe Austin's boom in spite of the present economy will translate to a higher outlook in other Texas metros in 2011 and beyond.
