The rush is on: Retailers, builders flock to Southeast Austin, one of city's last affordable enclaves

No section of the metro saw as much retail development in 2022’s first quarter as Southeast Austin, which had a whopping 380,000 square feet of space under construction. The next closest submarket was Hays County, at 163,000 square feet under construction. It’s just one data point of many that highlights a wider trend: Southeast Austin may be the next metro submarket to see an economic boom.
