In the United States you're allowed to move wherever you want to move and you don't have to check in with "the locals" first to see if that's OK. It's always OK. And thank god for that. In every case where locals are able to direct policy they make absurd decisions that make everything worse for everybody. If lots of people want to live in Brooklyn, then they should obviously be allowed to do that. And developers should obviously be allowed to respond to that demand by building housing.
