Having gotten to know you, I feel fairly well since the purchase of your home here, I welcome with open arms families such as yours to my community.
It's the top 1% building the 2.5 million 10,000 sqft homes that are slowly erasing the common man from the landscape.

Actually, that is not your big problem. You big problem is the guy from Florida, California or Arizona that has cashed in in those markets and has a ton of money.
He has a LLC set up and his only reason for being in your neck of the woods is to set up his little "stock exchange" with his cronies. They will start building homes 100 at a time and flipping them over and over driving up the cost of land and homes to proportions that are just unbelievable.
2 years from now a gouse that could be purchased for 100K there will be priced in the 250-300K range. Vacant land? Same deal it will be worth a ton of money. You'll keep hearing the slogan "they aren't making any more land" while you watch the price shoot through the ceiling.
I have not taken this personally Jay, I know that you know we have been most respectful to your town. I have taken great pains to make sure I pump my money I spend there with the locals and try to stay away from the chains. I also looked for an existing home not some "little boxes" brand new subdivision with no character. Like I said I plan on living there one day.
