Any idea why, though? If these places have fairly easy, quick processes to get new construction greenlit, why is no one building there?

At least where I am it’s relatively cheap and easy (usable land goes for $10k, permitting, etc is $20k) and they’re building and selling.

About three or four builders, but not many more.
