Not really. The east side of the area where I live is bounded by mountains, so can’t really expand more. To the southeast they are putting in thousands of starter homes. I’m not sure where the water is going to come from.
The problem is twofold - one issue is there is a lot of the real estate tied up being used only during the cold weather months from snowbirds. The population goes up by roughly a third then. The other issue is folks moving here from other states, primarily California. The influx has greatly exceeded the rate of new construction.
