Dave situation aside.
This is a picture form my backyard. It was nothing but trees and open land. Now it’s all locked down and paved and nothing but homes going up. I feel it’s kinda lame. Now I only have a strip of tree behind my house (they look good when the weather warm up) and if they start building houses right behind me ima be pissed because I like not have nobody live right behind me and seeing all in my yard

You bringing up affordable housing like the folks that live there have all this money. They would be the same exact tax bracket or even less than the people that would be moving in the affordable housing.
So how he keeping poor folks out when the town ain’t some lavish place

Fuck that, I’m a home owner and I don’t want “affordable housing” around my neighborhood either.. This isn’t my forever home but I still want my property value to remain intact so when I decide to buy another house I can turn the one I already own into a rental property (passive income)…

I feel what you're saying, but your desire to make some extra money shouldn't outweigh other people's ability actually get a home.

But its sooooooo much land that houses can be built on. It goes both ways and understandable.
Even the neighborhood the family would be coming from.
People move to certain areas for certain reasons.

Ok i mostly read thru this thread.
So just to sum it up...the company is using the tag of "affordable housing"...just to get the land(s) and build more expensive houses...condos...etc. in that area.
What Dave is against...is them coming in their small town/village, and disrupting everything that makes the area what it is now. Kinda like what one of yall said...the start of gentrification in a sense. It starts wit the houses...then corporate companies droppin their businesses in the area and pushing out the smaller local ones. Erasing the culture of that area.
Am I right...wrong...in the ballpark wit that assessment so far?

Companies like this never go areas that’s nothing but land and do this.
They want to change the landscape of a established city that has necessities In place like plumbing etc and push out the folks.
It’s thousands of miles of open land they can do this on and start from the ground up but they don’t.

Nah this wasn't bots. The MSM made a concerted efforted on this one. CNN, MSNBC, the NYT, all put out propaganda pieces.
