[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I don't necessarily hate new homes, just not a huge fan of what they "represent" - car centric suburbs, and so wasteful. Why does each person need 1,500 square feet? And the areas theyre located in just aren't my thing. I [b]don't wanna live somewhere where everyone looks the same and acts the same[/b]. [/quote] It's not 1960. That doesn't apply to suburban life anymore. And hello, have you been through a huge chunk of NW lately? people want to have both of their narratives be true, but they contradict one another. The first narrative is that their DC neighborhood is so diverse. The second narrative is that most of the working-class people and/or people of color are now moving to the burbs and other "young families just like us" are moving into DC. Yes, young families just like you are taking over DC, which is making it LESS DIVERSE, the thing you all claim to hate. Unreal.[/quote]
