I live in Austin and I have heard some people say Charlottesville is what Austin was like a few years ago. Before the housing market imploded the Austin real estate market was starting to price people out of the central areas. So basically its a problem we are still dealing with. Its hard to have a cool city and to keep things affordable because if you have a fun dynamic city people move there and push up prices. We have attempted to do things like allowing small lots to encourage lower prices with mixed success. Its interesting to hear the comparison.
