The American idea of a single family home with a lawn and lot size needs to change. And the people that have these don't want new construction in the neighborhood that is dense. Homeowners are fighting back against multiplexes and apartment buildings, and especially against low-income housing.

There's nothing wrong with this vision, in fact allowing infill in certain neighborhoods will make it cheaper and easier to have large yards elsewhere. There aren't infinite people to fill infinite apartments!

There's not infinite land within commuting distance to the job centers. In the large metro areas almost all available land has been turned into single family homes. If we want to expand housing some people will need to live in multifamily.
