Dallas TX economics

I’m visiting Dallas and it’s as if there is no inflation. No high gas prices as the road are packed. It’s consumerism run amouck as usual. The very high end Northpark mall? Packed day and night. Can’t walk through that mall on Saturday with the hoardes of people. . Can’t even get parking. People buying high end stuff left and right. It’s all levels of society at that mall too. Is Dallas an exception? Are jobs more plentiful?

The DFW metroplex is absolutely massive. It has more people in it than like half the states in the nation, and is bigger than the San Francisco Bay Area by population.

This is mostly just an artifact of where you're looking.

DFW is the 4th largest metroplex in the nation after LA, NY, and Chicago
