nativehoustonion Posted July 1, 2013 Share Posted July 1, 2013 The World Almanac said Houston density is 3,758 per square mile. With 599.5 square miles. It will go up further with all this construction. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
strickn Posted July 1, 2013 Share Posted July 1, 2013 Lol, well you could say the same for official city populations haha. We're all freaks here And that's true, Chicago's urban area only grew by a few hundred thousand in the last ten years, while Houston's grew by over a million. Both have their pros and cons, Houston is in a great position for the future. Chicago held an excellent seat between East and West when that became the dominant axis of the country and the continent. If the axes have shifted to north-south, then the Texas Triangle is in the hot seat for the next few generations. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't see what the Dakotas have to do with it. More like Houston is one of a handful of z-axes: http://www.texastribune.org/2011/03/25/maps-visualize-us-population-growth-by-county/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
79ta Posted July 2, 2013 Share Posted July 2, 2013 I don't see what the Dakotas have to do with it. More like Houston is one of a handful of z-axes: I took it that he means the Texas triangle will be the center seat between Canada, the US, and Mexico.

Trae Posted August 28, 2013 Share Posted August 28, 2013 They are right. the city can't manage all of the etj and it will only be a matter of time before the etj has more people than the city. then what? Some of these communities are going to want to break off to better self manage imo, but they will have not have a strong tax base. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Trae Posted August 29, 2013 Share Posted August 29, 2013 Why didnt some of these suburbs start annexing land before COH surrounded them? Places like Humble, Katy, Spring. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
