Building sprawling housing tracts over the fields and valleys that supply so much of the nation's food, and exhausting our groundwater to do so, is finally becoming controversial.

Red states like Texas have the luxury of space until they do not.

Perhaps - but my point was that unlike Texas, Florida is already as "congested" as California is. We actually have less space than California - geographically, we're about a third the size in terms of land area. We are a little bigger than New York, but not by a ton.

So what you wrote upthread:

When Texas and Florida are as congested as New York and California, the COL will also rise proportionately.

....isn't really true for Florida. We're already as congested as New York and California.
