Boomtown 2040
KVUE is proud to focus on 'Boomtown 2040,' a year-long campaign dedicated to Central Texas growth: transportation, the cost of housing, general affordability, jobs, industry, and the impact of changes on Austin's unique culture. More than 150 people move to Austin every day, therefore the area’s population is expected to double, again, by 2040. This page is where you will find stories on all these topics. We also want to hear your ideas and stories. Email boomtown2040@kvue.com and follow along at #Boomtown2040.
