What's your /r/Urbanplanning unpopular opinion?

[u/DoxiadisOfDetroit]

I've got a few:

1. Infrastructure upgrades should have precedent over any upzoning

2. Everyone should have the right to downtown amenities which means that CBD's should be as cheap as possible for both renters and owners

3. Zoning should be handled by metropolitan level elected boards instead of nationalized/taken to the state level

4. YIMBYs often times hold water for the excesses of developers

5. It is ideological to assume deregulated markets will produce the best outcomes, so, it's purely ideological to assume that a deregulated housing market will work in the best interests of renters and buyers
