“Florida has become the fastest-growing state in the union, with its GDP increasing nearly 19% since Q3 2019 […] Texas’ growth has been among the most impressive given its size—its real economic output has increased by $230B over the last four years, putting it just barely behind California […] That impressive growth has allowed Texas to pull ahead of NY in overall GDP and in white-collar professional, scientific, and technical services output”https://www.apricitas.io/p/the-new-geography-of-american-growth

“In fact, job growth in Florida and Texas has been so large that one in three new jobs in America come from those two states, and more than one in five come from Texas alone. This was in large part thanks to a white-collar boom —In the Lone Star state, more than 300k new jobs came from professional & business services and another 100k came from financial services”… these are wild numbers.

"Florida permitted 9.5 new units per thousand residents and Texas permitted 8.8—while the equivalent figures were 2.1 in New York and 3.1 in California. The gap is so large that each of the Dallas, Houston, and Austin MSAs permitted more new units than the entirety of New York State last year, with Dallas alone beating NY by 80%."

"Dallas metro area, despite being less than 1/3 the size of the New York metro, has contributed more to nationwide economic growth over the last three years than any other. Miami alone has contributed more to nationwide growth than the four largest midwestern metros combined, and Austin was likewise the fastest grower among America’s 100 largest metros. Those areas roundly beat out some of the 'superstar cities' that led growth throughout the 2010s"
