Not really. Their goal is for the local community first and foremost. You know what you are getting into if you trying to buy this kind property.

My point is that for a lot of these places, unless they can figure out some way to be more appealing, there will be no local community before all that long.

  Japan is in population decline and people are moving to the city. There is no reversal of this trend. Compromise would not solve the problem anyway. Making sure the the current crops of the residents are part of the local community is a good goal. They are not gonna win, might as well preserve what they have temporarily.

    > They are not gonna win, might as well preserve what they have temporarily So they are betting on slow death. Thats a hell of a plan

      How is selling vocation homes to the outsiders who refuses to comply with local communities not a slow death anyway? You conveniently ignored the bigger picture that so many ppl mentioned: ppl are moving to the cities. If the local economy is gonna gonna die, might as well die gracefully

        Thats just an excuse not to try to do anything. If you have more tax money you have more options than zero. > refusing to comply You are always free to change the stupid rules

  This may be true, but doesn't mean that all other options are better in the view of the community. They may prefer to roll the whole thing up compared to some models.

    The alternative is doing what Newfoundland is doing. They're "buying out" whole communities. Residents get a substantial amount of money and all public services are permanently withdrawn. It's basically like living in the woods.

      That’s always an option I suppose . Canada is huge, and its population isn’t. As a result there are unincorporated billages/whatever you want to call them, where you are on your own for services. I suppose it’s not a bad arrangement if you are up for it

      Newfoundland has historically been broke as shit, and poor money management is why they ended up joining Canada instead of remaining an independent crown colony.
