"Sprawl, defined as the unplanned, uncontrolled..."
I am a land developer, please tell me where I can build some unplanned, uncontrolled subdivisions, I've yet to find such a place.
"These are typically not people seeking refuge, they are wealthy folks invading places that were poor, and happy to be poor."
There's an idiotic statement. People moving to suburbs are represent all levels of the economic scale, including those on welfare. I develop affordable housing and homes for first-time buyers, in the suburbs. Oh, and bring me some statements from people who are "happy to be poor." That's a good one...
There is only one alternative to sprawl. Urban density, people living like rats in a cage.

"Slow growth"ers have been around for decades too ... they push development away from their area to be somone else's problem. Which caused leapfrog development
Developers have it never had it easy.
