They’re probably bothered by having to see all those pesky mentally ill, homeless people on the streets of the existing “public” cities and want to set up some kind of members only gated community where only the properly vetted can mix.

Well said. Yes it was. Even before that, at Roanoke, I think.
In the 1800’s, starting from New York, that’s where all the crazy stuff like Mormons and Seventh Day Adventist’s and Millerites, and whatever, came from. But I digress. I don’t care about that much, but, yeah, you are correct.

A good question.

For some time I have believed that this is not the only place being destroyed and its inhabitants ruined so that certain interests can purchase the land at a low cost.

Doe’s the terterm firesale” ring a bell?

And the 1960s. Planned communities were all the rage. Like Columbia, Maryland.
