I believe your answer is right there. The prediction of it falling apart & having no appeal to baby boomers was part of his narrative. He was so annoyed by his wonderful, retired, no kids in the school system, neighbors moving away, he was blinded to the potential & possibilities. Since Blechman's kids are undoubtedly through the school system by now, it would be amusing to think he might want to retire here, except for the fact that he smeared the place in a book.
