It probably happens everywhere, but I know here in Colorado there's a lot of hypocrisy. People decry urban sprawl, but then they want to live in a house with a really big lot.
I'm a fan of density myself. I think the world and the people would be better off if we did build up instead of out. I live in a very densely populated area and I think I have a better quality of life than the people out in the 'burbs with their big yards. But maybe other people really like mowing or something.
