Austin cannot compete.
Their road and traffic infrastructure is the worst in Texas.
With the exception of I-35, DFW's roads are pretty damn good.

It is, and has been just that for the last 15-20 years-but the reason(s) are a mystery to me. In July I went with the contractor I work for to a lumber supplier to arrange shipment of some decking to a jobsite here. Neither of us had visited that supplier in about 10 years. We were amazed that not only were parts of the perpetually-under-construction IH 35 again-or still-under construction, creating a mess, but so was the access road and the street to the lumber supply, creating a mini traffic jam, and the place is in a suburban industrial park-I guess it is just part of keeping Austin weird...
