The stats are in. 100 new people a day come to Austin. How do you react to this? What attracts these folks? Why Austin? Is it the plethora of jobs? Or the unique hipness? Or the environment? Where do these new folks land?

Well, that's partlly why I can't come back--it changes the place too much.

Have you met anyone who just arrived in Austin lately?

I divided the annual figure by 365 and it's actually around 70 or so a day. I guess the growth has started to taper off a bit. I'll try and find some real numbers to post.
