Redlining in ... Southwest Austin?
A whole new level of Austin NIMBY gaslighting.
I've gotten used to hearing white gentrifiers on the east side show up to Planning Commission meetings to decry new development, sanctimoniously invoking the historic oppression of the neighborhood's Black and Hispanic populations as an excuse to oppose new housing that will undoubtedly be cheaper than the modern farmhouse they bought a few years ago.
But residents of the bougie Travis Country neighborhood claiming that a nearby affordable housing development would amount to "redlining" in Southwest Austin –– that's a whole new level of NIMBY gaslighting.
