People also did that ~60 years ago right in the middle of San Francisco. There was plenty of cheap empty land. I have a relative there who bought her 4-bedroom house in 1963 for $9000. She likes her neighborhood. There is plenty of free parking. If there were still any kids, they could play in the street. Normally there is zero traffic of any kind. There is no trash and certainly no biohazard problem. I guess she votes to keep it that way. Wouldn't most people do so? She helped create the neighborhood that so many people envy. Anybody else who wants a similar neighborhood can go do the same thing: build a house in a cheap area with open land, then live there for 56 years. What people are demanding is to skip that effort. People don't want to build out on empty hills and then wait 56 years. They just want to take what people like her created, degrading it with excess traffic.
