"LA maintains its crown."

My point was not who's is bigger, but that the building traffic crisis there is consistent with the timescale of Prop. 13. It took Houston over 15 years to get road construction caught up with the growth during Boom Time, and that counts the population decrease after The Bust. Now with the building boom north and west of Houston, no doubt it will be getting bad again...

Road infrastructure is not something that is built up over a long weekend. It's scale is measured in decades, and if the planners drop the ball for whatever reason, the situation is screwed for a very long time.

Ted,

The traffic is really bad in Boulder too. Sometimes it takes me 5 minutes to get home.
