Not only that, but low density single family home cost much more in infrastructure than they generate in taxes.

So the scam is perpetuated and new homes are built to finance the old infrastructure, until there is no more place to build and everyone complains about taxes rising.

The metropolitan area I live in finance a lot of surrounding surburbs, and the suburbanites have the gal to complaint that there isn't enough parking space when they work and shop in the city and go back to the surburb at night, or that living in the city is noisy.

Surburbs are an eyesore and need to go.
