I'm not an expert on DFW.
I've watched Atlanta grow for the past 40+ years.
Gwinnett County used to be the boonies where you get acreage and a cheap home.
Then it became the suburbs where you get your starter home.
Then it became a business district where your starter homes were townhouses and condos.
Right now, it has 2 major hospitals, an airport, 4 Fortune 500 companies,and a million people. Hell... it has 2 minor league sports teams and was bidding for 2 major league teams.
You can look outward to Barrow and Walton Counties and see them follow along the exact same path. Will they actually develop their own business districts? Who knows. But they are the sleepy suburbs for Gwinnett (Barrow also doubles as a suburb for Athens).
