No, I'm saying that real estate developers are overcoming the NIMBYs by instilling themselves into their local politics, and then calling for "future forward" mix-use development, obstensibly thinking about the "changing demographics" of the local area, wanting to build GIANT developments that mix high-end condos, affordable housing, and senior care (both assisted and independent) into the same space. This enables them to essentially control the housing market, and then buy up all of the nearest single family dwellings and repeat.

This is to say nothing about the massive developments going up all over our farmland outside of city centers, as gentrifiers are now bored/sick/scared of the city and seek to once again suburbanize.
