By affecting property values and land taxes, your advocations don’t need to be implicit to affect locals- think people with no money who have lived there for decades or more. People who are barely getting by as it is.

Do you really want another old couple on the streets of seattle so that you can live your agrarian fantasy?

In fairness I've no skin in the game, I'm not from here or moving here. Just seemed like a cute town near the train.

I'd hope new housing would be built to accomodate any newcomers.
