It's all about squeezing the maximum amount of property taxes out of each new resident. Everyone loses their mind at the thought of property taxes going up, so the developments that get approved are $700,000+ units on a private road that is directly off of a state road. This isn't coincidental. Freeport at least has a decent commercial tax base that keeps the mill rate low.
