In this post, we are talking about the overcrowded classes. If you want more classes or clubs, you have to start them. Any one can start a class or club, just takes some intuitive.

As for the golf courses, pickleball courts etc. You should have done the math! No way over 30 golf courses is going to mean 140,000 people plus their occasional guests can golf whenever they want. Same with the 100 or so pickleball courts, you have to learn to share. Or, do as they do in some retirement communities. Guests are not permitted to use any of the amenities.
