I like how we are being realistic about Amazon in this thread. If you check out other city threads on multiple forums, posters are in boosterism overdrive in picking their city as the best choice. Some of the reasons they cite for their cities being a top choice/the best choice are ridiculous.
I think Austin has a good chance of being a finalist because Austin and Texas do incentive packages for relocations well, and Texas is business friendly. If this was just an IT or software development facility, Austin would be the top choice IMO. But this is a major corporate campus, not just a Tech play. I think NOVA followed by DFW would be the leading candidates.
