CHAPTER 4: MEGALOPOLIS


A megalopolis is an extensive metropolitan area or a long chain of continuous metropolitan areas. Southlake is definitely not a megalopolis. It has more of a small town feel as opposed to an urban one. It is nowhere near an ocean, 10 hours to be exact and not a major production center.


Southlake's population is rapidly growing, however, I do not foresee it ever becoming a megalopolis.

Population in July 2009: 27,282. Population change since 2000: +26.8%

Males: 13,682 (50.2%)

Females: 13,600(49.8%)
