Not sure exactly what this has to do with SEC sports .
I think I speak for most of the College Station- Bryan area in that they probably don't want to get any bigger. The last thing they want are big city problems.

It's been referred to in various media in the past as such. Many comparisons between the urban areas have been made.
Atlanta's most affluent area, Buckhead, has been called, "The Beverly Hills of The South". Buckhead (Atlanta): The Beverly Hills of The South I've seen it before on t-shirts when visiting out there.
The Buckhead neighborhood of Atlanta has often been compared to Washington DC’s Georgetown and Chicago’s Loop. More recently however, the city’s wealthiest zip code has begun to draw more comparison to Beverly Hills. Situated west of Hollywood and east of Santa Monica in Los Angeles, Beverly Hills has built a reputation for being one of the most exclusive, affluent neighborhoods in the world. LINK
Combined with the fact Atlanta is now the New Hollywood (more movies are now filmed in Atlanta than in Los Angeles) with all its studios, this only adds more allure to the ATL-LA axis comparisons and such. Atlanta: The New Hollywood

Both Columbia, SC and Knoxville, TN are trending to exceed a million before the end of this decade.
That blows my mind.
As a kid in the 50s and 60s I remember those two, specifically, as simply being small Southern towns.

Looking at the 2 posts...Fayetteville 2nd in both City growth and Metro growth is pretty crazy. Curious to see what the property values (and taxes) have done over that period.

Right. When you use quotations you’re quoting something. Even in your reach of an article about Buckhead - an affluent part of Atlanta and not the actual city itself- did anyone say Atlanta is “Los Angeles of the East” lmao
The article about movies is cute too. Still searching for where “people call it the Los Angeles of the East” lol. You were referencing it being called that for its expansion geographically too but way to move the goal posts moron

1) Austin, TX - +8.32% (2,473,275) - 17th nationally
2) Fayetteville, AR - +7.98% (590,337) - 18th nationally
3) College Station, TX - +4.92% (281,445) - 58th nationally
4) Knoxville, TN - +4.76% (946,264) - 61st nationally
5) Nashville, TN - +4.37% (2,102,573) - 66th nationally
Why do Nashville peeps act as if Nashville has experienced growth unlike any other city in world history when it’s not really all that impressive compared to other big, souther metros?
In terms of % growth, Nashville ranks 11th nationally for metros with 1 million+ people:
1. Austin: +8.3%
2. Raleigh: 6.7%
3. Jacksonville: 6.7%
4. Dallas: 6.1%
5. San Antonio: 5.7%
6. Charlotte: 5.4%
7. Orlando: 5.4%
8. Tampa: 5.3%
9. Houston: 5.0%
10. Phoenix: 4.6%
11. Nashville: 4.4%
Nashville is 14th in numerical growth of all metros since 2000:
1. Dallas- 462k
2. Houston- 360k
3. Phoenix- 224k
4. Atlanta- 202k
5. Austin- 190k
6. Tampa- 168k
7. San Antonio- 146k
8. Charlotte- 145k
9. Orlando- 145k
10. Jacksonville- 108k
11. Raleigh- 95k
12. Lakeland- 93k
13. Riverside- 88k
14. Nashville- 88k
I mean, I get it. Nashville has really grown in recent years. But whoever does the publicity for the city needs a giant pay raise because Nashville’s growth is routinely mentioned in major news publications (WSJ, etc) but you never really hear much about Raleigh or Jacksonville… which are growing much faster than Nashville.

Are they California Republicans fleeing the shitty (literally if you've been to his hometown San francisco) governor?
Or are they democrats trying to save money on their taxes?
It’s both. But no one really knows the % split.
A lot of California Republicans are sick of their state and are getting out.
Other CA liberals are taking jobs in places like Austin, Phoenix, Atlanta, etc and are taking their politics with them.
I suspect that most of the Californians moving to Austin, Atlanta, Raleigh, and Charlotte are probably more liberal.
I also suspect those moving not as far away (Arizona, Nevada, Idaho, Montana) are more likely conservatives trying to get out.

Auburn is getting too big?
It’s growing too fast for sure.
Too many taller type buildings going up downtown (4-6 stories) that are ruining the feel. It doesn’t feel like a small, southern town anymore.

You're a Florida fan. That automatically makes you "The Moron of morons".

1. It's both. Conservatives fleeing the liberal hell.... and Liberals who are realizing that the liberal utopia they created is not very Utopian, and costs too damn much...
2. California "conservatives" are often more liberal than Tx Liberals...
Lastly, why is this thread on this board?
What's the point?

As long as we’re making stuff up, I’ll say Atlanta should be known as the Soweto of America.

Oxford, Ms is no where near 70,000 population. It is a wide spot in the country road.

I ran into an Auburn grad in Starkville when his children were visiting MSU. He said he loved Starkville, and it reminded him of what Auburn used to be.

Cannot defend his made up quote so deflects to ad hominem insults. Then proceeds to crack up at his own moronic post. Like a retard laughing at farting in the bathtub.
