My mistake. You are correct. It was Cumberland town not county. I originally made the argument because I know there are a large number of lower income homes and properties in neighborhoods you don’t see. A blanket description of all residents is inaccurate. But I do agree that the most vocal groups in Cape are NIMBY folks who like to feel virtuous by talking a good game as long as it’s on someone else’s field. I have lived in the SoPo side of town for 20 years and the town has changed over the past 20 years and has moved to consistently Democratic voters who one might think would be welcoming based on their yard signs.

I wonder how a low income proposal in the middle of the gentrified Portland west end would fly.
