You're right. I forgot that it's impossible for parents and children to misunderstand eachother.
I should have realized it, too, because when my parents tell me something, I know what they really mean, and it's not usually what they actually said to me.
So of course your parents want their house price to go up so they can pay higher taxes while surrounded by more traffic and noise. Seems so obvious now that you say it.

Good thing that my county now offers people of their age a way to abate property tax increases so that they can "stay in the home they've known for so long" or whatever the line was.
Well, good for seniors. Absolutely awful for the people my age who want to buy a home, start a family, and participate in the economy in ways that those things enable. But we don't much care about those people.
Anyways, thanks for clarifying things to me internet stranger.
