A new article from Forbes just came out and ranked Austin as the fastest growing large metro in the country. Our population is supposed to jump by 15% between now and 2012!
Here is what Forbes had to say about our great city
"The self-proclaimed "Live Music Capital of the World" is booming, thanks in large part to Austin's high-tech industry (key employers include Dell, IBM and Apple) and the University of Texas, which provides the area with a steady stream of engineering talent. In addition to music, the city also has a thriving film industry. Its projected gross domestic product growth by 2012 is second only to Mobile, Ala., and first among the largest 100 metro areas in the country. Metro area Austin's population is expected to grow nearly 15% by 2012. "
Also according to Forbes our GMP (Gross Metropolitan Product) will rise by 32%, among the highest in America.
