My sources show unambiguously that the population declined up until at least 2023.

There are no consistent sources for the 2019-2024 population due to the way demographics are counted, so they have to be mixed. But they still show _at_ _most_ a weak return to growth with _at_ _most_ modest increases over the peak 2019 population.

This absolutely supports my point that the reason for the property price drop in Austin was the population decrease in 2020, rather than anything to do with new construction.

And you didn't want to spend 10 seconds to look at that, and instead spammed the thread with AI slop which is demonstrably wrong.
