True, but there will also be more roads, just as there will be more amenities. I really can't envision hoards of residents of Fenny/Southern Oaks flocking to use Mulberry Rec Center, can you? And I doubt they'll eat up tee times at Walnut Grove either. As long as infrastructure keeps up with the population, the change should be minimal.

Also consider this: If they build 14,000 new homes, I'll bet they sell 14,000 new homes. This means there is a market for 14,000 new homes and someone will build them. I'd much rather the developers of TV build them than some unknown entity.
