Don't know if you've ever been to a city with a slaughterhouse, but you can't exactly zone the smell away. Normally you can smell the city before you can see it

- davidw 4y agoFair enough, it's just an example of something that I think most people really would consider a truly noxious land use, rather than, say, a corner store, or a 3-plex, which are things that current zoning has a big say about in a lot of places.

In most of the developed world stuff like this often ends up the east side of town, because in the northern hemisphere prevailing winds usually come from the west. Poor people often end up on the east side of towns for the same reason.
