One would think that with housing prices so high, we’d see a huge surge of infill development. Apartments, quadplexes, and more. Boulder and surrounding towns need to legalize more density.

An old home with a large lot in Nobo sold for 1 mil last summer, no noticeable nor significant changes were made and it's for sale again for 1.5 mil this summer.
