If you propose building new apartment buildings in order to bring rent prices down, the NIMBY crowd will fight you tooth and nail on the premise that those apartment buildings will lower the value of their homes if you build them anywhere near their homes.
In fact, just about anything you do to bring housing prices or rent back down to something the average American can actually afford, chances are good the NIMBY crowd will fight you.
