[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Even the YImBYist of YImBY groups acknowledge that this will do little to nothing to create affordable housing. https://www.strongtowns.org/journal/2023/4/26/upzoning-might-not-lower-housing-costs-do-it-anyway So, in the end we should go through all of this to have “walkable urban neighborhoods” in areas of suburban housing that few people have asked for, and in fact many of them moved away from on purpose.[/quote] Exactly. People live there because there are affordable single family homes in a generally safe neighborhood with decent schools within a reasonable distance to the beltway. They are not living there because they seek greater transit convenience to Rockville Town Center. Planning has lost the plot and really needs a house cleaning and a reset. [/quote]
