North Texas is growing at an unrivaled pace.
Dallas-Fort Worth was the fastest-growing metro area in the U.S. by population from 2010 to 2020, followed by Houston, according to U.S. Census data, and has been projected to surpass Chicago in the next decade or so as the nation’s third most populated metro. A new report released Thursday shows that D-FW trails only Nashville in a scorecard of metro areas where property executives expect to prosper.
So what is the region and state’s special sauce, and what could get in the way of North Texas’s rapid development? Former Dallas Mayor Ron Kirk and Michael Levy, CEO of Dallas-based real estate investor Crow Holdings, sat down Thursday to discuss the region’s success and future at the Urban Land Institute’s annual fall meeting in Dallas this week with more than 5,300 attendees.
