What's with all these Ryan Homes and cheap housing going up?

I mean being built. I'm in a rural area, about 5 minutes away drive time, I guess someone sold their property, now it's destroyed with crap, cheap housing. And then just now going through another town, I saw more crap housing being built.

I get that people move and need homes but like these land developers are literally destroying everything with their cheap, crap housing 😡😡🤬🤬😡

That's what happens in a tight economy.
Landowners don't want to pay tax on vacant lots; developers take bribes/bungs/sweetners from government and build 'low cost housing'......of varying quality in the hope it'll attract 'working poor' with mortgages they can afford.

Happens everywhere.

@Picklebobble2 in this area I think those farm owners are older and I'm willing to bet they had an offer from a land developer to sell and they took it.

That's my guess anyway. Let them offer me money. Only way a developer is getting land I live on is over my dead body.

@twiigss Fair comment. Getting old is hard when you're poor. Maybe they'd had enough and couldn't see the current farce ending any time soon and just thought maybe they'd retire and try and enjoy life for a while.

@Picklebobble2 we live on like 2 acres, no farm land but it's a lot to have to mow.
