[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]DC population grew by over 7% over the last decade.
DC housing units grew by around 6% over the last decade.

This growth trajectory leaves a scarcity that drives housing costs.

Pretty basic concept that the anti-urbanists don't want to acknowledge.

You must be reading different posts than I am.

They acknowledge it all right, they just don't care. Their mentality is "screw you, I got my SFH" and they are completely unashamed of it. The entitlement is off the charts. They're not happy with just being able to own their own SFH, they want to be able to tell all their neighbors what they can and can't do with their SFHs to make sure that the entire area looks like their personal picture of a suburban cul-de-sac. God forbid people actually be able to do what they want to do with their own property, oh no - clearly because they're the most important people in the world, their vision for their neighborhood is the only correct vision and it cannot change EVER no matter what happens in the decades and decades they plan to maintain an iron fist on zoning.
