The Houston metro was growing faster than Dallas earlier in the decade. Now it's reversed. This is all pre-Harvey too. With the Amazon 2nd headquarters likely to move to Dallas with Houston not even on the contender list, and Huntsville being selected for Blue Origin, I wonder if Houston is f---ed. In 30 years with all electric cars, people won't need oil anymore.

Since when is Amazon HQ2 likely to be in Dallas, I thought the DMV area was the most likely location?

Interesting Fairfax Co. barely grew but it is really the calm before the Amazon storm in the upcoming years. Also Virginia Beach seemed to buck the suburban growth trend with it barely growing and most of the growth going to Chesapeake/Suffolk. RVA area growing at a decent clip with the usual declines in the rural areas.
