Perhaps because it's not a 2% economy.

Lots of pent-up growth out there.

In the Southeast, right now you can't throw a rock without hitting new construction, major remodeling (seems like every restaurant is doing one....) or a "Now Hiring" sign.

Nice to see things booming. Been a few years.

Republican-majority areas are booming, due to renewed optimism since Trump's election.

Democrat-majority areas are collapsing due to pessimism over the future of government subsidies.

Growth is becoming regionalized. A future President Kamala Harris would crash Texas and make California boom - until other people's money runs out.
