I agree. I moved to a suburban single family home neighborhood specifically because I like the environment of a neighborhood with suburban single family homes. That suits me and my family. Others might like low-rise apartment buildings and townhomes, and they should have access to neighborhoods with that type of housing. Others might like high-rise apartments, and those neighborhoods should be available too. Why is it so bad that many different types of neighborhoods exist?

As an Oregonian I’m a little disgusted with social activists in Portland couching their impending rape of many neighborhoods across the state as YIMBY when this policy was designed to attack rural Oregon specifically.
