Yes. I know. Provo-Orem-Lehi. It is also a component of the Greater Salt Lake City CSA ("Salt Lake-Provo-Orem" - home to just over 2.8 million).
The locations I listed were right on the outskirts of a 50-mile circle radiating from downtown Austin. As the crow flies, GRK is roughly 56 miles from CBD Austin.
Bottom line point - Austin does need another commercial airport!
