We read 12 books about how modern Texas was built

Six older books help set the stage for understanding that Texas take on modernism. Urban planning takes a backseat to discussions of architecture in most of these Texas books. A tiny minority of our state’s residents are old enough to recall the era that predated the modern Texas city. Before towers, freeways and, especially, air conditioning. Before top-rated universities, hospitals, museums and libraries. Before up-to-date restaurants, parks, theaters, festivals and concert halls. And well before all the digital technologies that make these modern things and others hang together these days. It was not until 1950 that the U.S. Census recorded more Texans living in urban areas than in the rural ones, 30 years after America as a whole turned that demographic corner. (Pause to think about that.) So all that urban modernity that we take for granted today came rushing at Texans with great speed, mostly during the past 75 years.

Hays County sees record real estate sales, price increase

Thursday, January 14, 2021 Economists at the Texas Real Estate Research Center at Texas A&M found that Hays County had an extremely strong housing market in 2020, according to an evaluation of the Multiple Listing Service. Research Economist Dr. Luis Torres said that ultra-low inventory combined with a record number of sales for 2020 and a record increase in prices during a pandemic and a recession is extraordinary and shows the strength of the market in Hays. The county saw a historically low one month inventory at the end of 2020 alongside its highest number of annual sales at 4,854 up from 3,991 in 2019 and an 11% increase in the median price of a home from $266,000 in 2019 to $295,000 in 2020. The center projects an 8.4% increase for all of Texas single-family sales for 2021.
