The YIMBY movement is an interesting political topic in the US because it really cuts across the normal political lines. You get democrats who support it for the social justice/living cost aspects and republicans who support it because it's solving a problem through deregulation/allowing the market to work.
Seems like less of a left/right axis and more of a for/against change axis.
