Absurd premise.

Retirees often have moved during their golden years, but it wasn’t always to downsize, but to live somewhere practical and enjoyable for their lifestyle, as they were no longer tied to living near a job, or where there are good schools for their children.

The problem is construction.
There never used to be a shortage of builders willing to meet the demand for population growth and movement and for new generations.
Our economy and culture is so dysfunctional, we aren’t building like we used to.

Not building like we used to? Come visit the Coeur d’Alene area. I’ve never seen so much construction. Gorgeous multi-generation arms are being sold off at a furious rate and turned into tract homes. Towns are running into each other.

In central Florida they are. And these homes are selling with barely a yard. It’s crazy. They are building with zero thought of infrastructure. It’s a traffic nightmare.

no thanks, we have homes being slapped up everywhere here in Northern Va- not every space needs to be developed.
