Reply to comment by TudorTerrier in Arlington County Board approves ‘Missing Middle’ zoning changes by linguisticsugar

Lol I love the signs claiming it will cause gentrification in front of multi-million dollar homes. As if you can gentrify a city where a mediocre 3 bedroom house is 900k.

Ah yes, we must preserve Arlington’s un-gentrified purity - dual-income defense contractor households, 20 something feds, and working class POC in dedicated affordable housing are notoriously susceptible to displacement.

I’m sure Little Saigon’s erasure was because we built too MUCH housing around here and not too little in the face of the metro area’s consistent growth and expansion.
