[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Prices go up for detached SFHs in areas of increasing density because that is what most prefer. NIMBYs love pretending to be daft just to question the obvious.[/quote] How are the YIMBYs going to address the shortage of detached SFHs in areas of increasing density?[/quote] By suggesting that such can be found farther out, and that we should be encouraging job creation to go along with well-managed housing development in those locations to acieve similar aims to those [i]publicly espoused[/i] by YIMBYs.[/quote] In MoCo the YIMBYs have advocated banning development farther out, and they’ve gotten their way by banning new houses in vast stretches of the county or otherwise making it commercially infeasible to build new SFH (attached and detached). That’s one reason the housing market is broken. [/quote]
