Because you made a strawman out of their point. Reasonable people avoid drug markets for good reason. Drug crimes and non-drug crimes (assault, robbery, x/y/z) commonly cluster[1], and citizens with working risk estimation skills

Deeply unfortunate, but we're arguably in a lose-lose situation where suffering from the problem has abuses, and yet so does fighting those who profit or benefit from the situation. There's immense social capital and NGO patronage

Depends if you think you’re going to ride a rising tide of appreciation when you buy a house, or if you have to accept its already long passed. Aunts and uncles picked up homes in SoCal for 150-200k in the 90s, now worth 1-2m in some cases,
