I agree that residents should protect their quality of life, but if the free market offers too few dwelling units for low wage workers, are residents of these town prepared to pay high prices for a burger or a pizza or have little to no affordable restaurants in their town? Will they mind not having a veterinarian in their town because the assistants can’t afford to live nearby and the vet doesn’t want to pay a higher wage? What is going to incentivize a private developer to offer affordable units in Aspen or Del Mar? I would bet there are a good number of long time residents in upscale NIMBY areas who have the financial statement to live there, but don’t like their town continually going upscale from a retail/services perspective.
