Small air****ts don't take up a lot of land. Yes -- they were built where
land was cheap, until the other seekers of cheap land surrounded them.
The the greedy real estate developers get into the act and want that
nice, flat, easily-buildable piece of property and start agitating the
neighbors about noise, "safety," etc. It is only recently that they have
become more brazen in telling local governments that the land is
"valuable" as a housing or commercial development.
