I meant people outside of Texas who especially thought Houston was off its rocker for not having zoning laws, but some people are coming around to the idea now since neighborhoods are naturally "upzoning" without government involvement. I'm still kind of on the fence about it because sometimes people have poor taste and think round holes are great for square pegs or that one size fits all.
