But now, even as the housing shortage worsens, towns like this one are denying new applications for the camps. In many places they have come to embody the danger of growing too big too fast, cluttering formerly idyllic vistas, straining utilities, overburdening emergency services and aggravating relatively novel problems like traffic jams, long lines and higher crime. ![](http://graphics8.nytimes.com/images/2011/11/26/us/JP-MANCAMPS-1/JP-MANCAMPS-1-articleLarge.jpg)

O noes! O noes! This is a totally new problem! No industry or locality has ever dealt with a sudden influx of workers before!
O big mama government, Do Something! Save them!

Looks like CHUs like I lived in in Iraq and Afghanistan. Not a bad way to live. Certainly better than living in dusty hangars and tents (also in Iraq and Afghanistan). I wonder if they need any IT support out there....
