    I’d argue it’s more the homeowners themselves. They don’t want high density housing built near them because it drives down the value of their house, so it doesn’t get built. Voting records tell that story extremely well.

      You’d be wrong. Local homeowners don’t vote on new construction. That’s not how any of that works.

        Homeowners absolutely have a say in their local elections, and there are many cases where they’ve directly prevented projects from moving towards.

        Local homeowners vote on zoning policy tho so he’s basically being correct, just not about the mechanism.

          Local homeowners typically vote on representatives who then set local zoning laws. But either way, guess what that’s called? Yep, regulation.
