[quote=Anonymous]it used to be that you showed wealth by escaping the city, now wealth is shown by proximity to the core. It is hitting areas like great falls and Potomac somewhat. Restrictive zoning is protecting these areas form condos and the people getting pushed out of proximity but it isn't sure for how long with modern justice trends and the news cycle showing the east county voters just how many times out of sight and out of mind decisions that protect areas like that turn out to hurt areas like silver spring.

It would take riots or a flood or negative demographic shifts to bring the bubble suburbs back into fashion. The question is can they hold on until then without being bent and contorted by people who resent them. The problem with a lack of density is you don't have the vote and it is harder for their campaign contributions to push for one-sided policies at the county level.

I will tell you this, areas that Incorporated before these trends that aren't beholden to the county or planning commission will become the new gold standard or policy gated communities.  That is where the money is currently going to. [/quote]
