YIMBY is an inverse of NIMBY. NIMBY stands for "Not In My BackYard," where as YIMBY stands for "Yes, In My BackYard."
People who don't want anything built vs. people who want seemingly unlimited building. While I am pro-building, it matters what type of housing is being built.
Thank you for that. I often question the perpetual drive to build new construction rather than update or support current homes and housing in my own area. I sometimes suspect new housing developments are some high level corporate scam to siphon money and gain control of property as an asset, much like you mentioned in your essay. Thank you for getting my mind going on this concept, now I want to investigate this conspiracy.
Great essay and I agree with the message. But what is a YIMBY?
