Next week, I'm spending a couple days on the Jersey Shore, in one of those towns where a bunch of people who drive everywhere they go in their regular lives pay a lot of money to spend a week or two in a dense, walkable town.
Matt Wanamaker contemplates this odd exemption to middle-to-upper-class NIMBYism on density. He also gives a good and thorough historical answer to a question I raise in the comments: Is it possible that people who otherwise despise multi-family housing, alleys, and other city-ish things are a little warmer to them in a place where they're unlikely to run into any of the kind of people they were wanting to avoid in the first place?
