Good point; but if it's only that, why not simply cash out of the urban core once it starts to expand, and buy a larger property further out? You might deal with a longer commute, but that's just down to money; if you could afford the same square footage in the city center...but alas.

This sort of answer angers me. I bought a house in town because it is convenient. I don't want to drive an hour to work each way. The idea that I will likely be taxed out of my home in ten or fifteen years is irritating and the idea that I should be happy about it because I'll make money on my house is also irritating.
