You got every right to gripe. I fall in between you and those you complain of. I recently acquired about 30 acres. I grew up on much the same. My nearest neighbor is a couple hundred yds away, the next a half mile. I don't want any more.
I have three young boys and they need more room than a back yard to run and grow in, like I did. I'd love to have more but it costs too much. Even ag land costs $2000-$5000 an acre unless you can find a whole, multi hundred acre place, again thanks to your city..."friends."
