Talk:Tract housing

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

"In spite of this mocking, ever-increasing numbers of Americans choose to reside in tract homes, including single-family, townhomes, even multi-unit condos and apartments built on the same priciples."

What, did a developer write this or something? Can I point out that tract homes are virtually the ONLY "choice" a lot of people have these days? Our population is increasing. Almost ALL new development is tract home suburbia. Revitalizing actual cities is still a young concept and even in places where you are able to move to a real city, doing so is very expensive and beyond peoples' reach. I live in suburbia but I sure as hell wouldn't call living in a suburb or going broke a "choice."

[edit] Why tract?

Is it because they are built along a tract (road)? Maikel 10:57, 8 November 2007 (UTC)
