[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The density gang would like to see open space turned into luxury apartments.[/quote] Why are you this confused? Density advocates want more density in urban areas so that housing doesn’t eat up every last green space that's left. Anti-sprawl. You literally have things completely backwards![/quote] Density advocates love to talk about “induced demand” in the context of building roads. But they never mention the induced demand caused by building more housing. [/quote] We have an increasingly growing population. They need to live somewhere, so yes, having more dense housing options will necessarily mean more people living in them. The point is, better than then continuing to eat up arable land for single family homes in car-dependent areas.[/quote]
