One reason is the lack of inventory of apartments. Don't give a place for poor people to live and they won't live there.
Water and sewer is the problem. Once water and sewer are provided, the population density goes up and apartments are possible. Results in overcrowding, traffic, etc. Apartments, condos, and townhouses have come to Turf Valley, but they are high dollar right now because they are all brand new and it is a posh community. Give them 30+ years and some dilapidation and the prices will be lower compared to new construction, just like Columbia is now. The houses on the Carroll Farm right off of route 144 are stacked one on top of another. Water and sewer in Howard County ends just before route 32. Once it crosses over route 32, kiss the county goodbye.
Should we start a pool as to when that is going to happen as the county struggles to come up with money to build an ES in Turf Valley?
