Did townhouses go somewhere?
I think they're not being built in most US (and maybe Canadian?) cities because nimbys only want single-family detached houses to be built to preserve their home's value
least that's what I've gathered from watching youtube videos on urban planning and reading articles
Gotcha. I'm in Seattle and I see a lot being built here.
People want single family detached homes, not because they want to preserve their home value, but because they want to preserve their quality of life.
As an owner of one I now understand why they suck and would not buy one again unless it is part of a larger HOA. In a townhouse that is stand alone, it only takes one unit being a total fucking pissant to ruin the entire property. All the checks and balances break down with every vote and action being 50/50 with no tie breaker or third party sanity. Unless of course you want to hire a lawyer for everything.
Your good neighbor moves out and sells to some mouth breathers and everything spins wildly out of control.
They went to town.
Tax incentives and property values have made them less attractive for home builders. Meanwhile They're a waste of space and energy and people who live in townhomes and apartments rate as much happier than people living in detached homes
