my understanding is that the planning for amenities is done according to a formula.... so many golf courses per thousand homes, so many pickleball courts, etc. So, theoretically, golf availability should keep pace with population increases.

What you do notice, when you look for open exec course tee times, is that most of the 3-day out openings are for hilltop, silver lake, walnut grove, briarwood, chula vista, mira mesa, etc. You don't see many openings (other than 7 am or 5 pm) for Truman, Roosevelt, Bogart, etc.

So, in short, there still are golf tee times available just not necessarily at the courses you are looking for.

I think there are also more full time (or near full time) residents than there used to be ... so golf times are being used up more in Nov/Dec and May than they used to be. No proof of this...just a sense that is what's happening.
