[quote=The-Shoveler]What you have to understand is the largest generation in history is just now coming into the household formation age and we are building like there was a declining population bust for the last 25 years..[/quote]READ MY LIPS, shoveler. There is NO MORE LAND left in SD County for subdivisions! Deal with it.
It has nothing to do with the size of the “upcoming generation” (or anything else, for that matter).
It is not in SD County’s best interest to keep building like there is no tomorrow … even with infill … (assuming permits could be acquired). We don’t have the water, infrastructure or adequate city and county staffs to serve the population we currently have. Due to gross overbuilding, longtime San Diegans’ quality of life has gone down the tubes since the mid-eighties, IMO.
If there is no room here for incoming millenials to accept jobs, they will take a job in another city. Although, I suspect there will always be room for them but the available housing won’t always be to their liking. That’s just too damn bad.
And it is really okay if SD County doesn’t grow (appreciably) going forward.
