One thought on “New housing desperately needed but often not wanted”

1. You raise a crucial point. The demand for housing is undeniable, especially in rapidly growing areas. However, the “not in my backyard” mentality often complicates the situation. It’s important to strike a balance between development and community concerns. Engaging residents in the planning process can help address their fears and incorporate their ideas, leading to solutions that are more widely accepted. Prioritizing affordable, sustainable housing can also help alleviate some opposition by showing the broader community benefits. What are your thoughts on potential strategies to bridge this gap?
