    Most transplants to Texas are coming from areas of California  away from the coast (Riverside, San Bernardino, inland Los Angeles, inland SF Bay Area, et....) that are also brown and concrete jungle metros. Dallas can seem relatively "green" compared to those areas even, especially in summer, for a fraction of the cost of living. Compared to the East Coast though, Dallas definitely feels brown/treeless. 

    Every time people visit from our Dallas office they always comment on the trees and greenery.

    where NC is in average tech salary and how it compares to the state median income. 

    https://www.bizjournals.com/inno/stories/news/2023/05/11/how-tech-salaries-stack-up-across-the-u-s.html

    further down in the story it says which metros have the highest percentage in technology and Raleigh is ranked #5 in the country in terms of percentage of tech in total workforce.  

     

    Glad to see I am significantly under paid.  :)

    Currently  ‘Under Construction’ Apartments throughout the City Center is just utterly Staggering.  I took the time to drive through all of the Nooks & Crannies of Center City Charlotte - From the Sugar Creek Station down through the Woodlawn Station (N. CLT to LoSo) and everything in between. (NoDa, OP, PM, Midtown, Gold Dist., SE, LoSo)

    Significant Apartment Complex Construction is totally changing the Landscape.  Do you folks think that the High Mortgage Interest Rates now, which is slowing down home sales will actually drive up Rental Occupancy Rates of these Apartments as people rent while waiting for Mortgage Loan Rates to Abate?

     

    Personally rising rent has pushed me to buying a home even with this increase in interest rates.

    story on WCNC about the Epicenter including interview with the architect

    https://www.wcnc.com/article/news/local/uptown-firstward-fourthward/original-project-architect-epicentre-reflects/275-0bac812a-c6a8-4723-b37e-5bab267fbf8b

    this condo tower which was cancelled and I am pretty sure everyone lost their deposits on is one of the reasons people are very hesitant here to propose large condo towers.  People lost hundreds of thousands of dollars in deposits.   this developer had not built a high rise up to this point and of course this was never completed.  It was proposed by this developer:  https://flco.com/portfolio/

    Really wish something like this would happen today. It’s kind of depressing seeing all these apartments going up but no way to actually own anything. This would likely be out of my price range but I am sure many people could afford one.

    You're missing my point. Im saying that the parking next door should have never included the hotels in the count for parking in the first place when they were building it. I think the hotels should have their own. It just seems to. busy having all that in one parking garage. 

    When I lived there the amount of confusion with hotel guests trying to park and get to the hotel was unreal. I’m talking people riding up and down the apartment resident only elevators trying to get to there hotel room and me trying to explain that they need to go down to the lobby and walk down the street. Utter confusion on their faces. This happen multiple times….
