[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Don't forget that anyone who disagrees with them (high density everywhere), they label as a racist, bigot, NIMBY. And, that these know-it-all GGWs are funded by developers, who have a vested interest in building, building, building, and tax payer exemptions/incentives only help line the developers wallets, not County citizens/DC residents. The developers have created their own lobbying group dressed up as concerned citizens.[/quote] The people already wanted this, the developers are hopping on. Just because the baby boomers wanted single family homes like the ones their parents bought in the post war era, doesn't mean that was the best set of decisions to make for a sustainable future. I, for one, am on older person, who appreciates that the Millennials and Gen Z are on this.[/quote] Millennials prefer single family homes just like their baby boomer parents. I'm not saying that's right or wrong. But it is true that the margin of difference in preferences is very small.[/quote] I read some market research from Redfin that something crazy like 90% of Millennials prefer single family homes over shared walls, even if it meant a substantially longer commute. I’ll try to find it. The American consumer has spoken, as we can see with the housing market today. There’s really no broad constituency for the policies GGW promote. Which to me indicates that there are strong interest groups with large financial incentives backing it. [/quote]
