Counterpoint: picturesque rural towns mist-seed their surrounding areas to ward off wealthy summer home buyers who will drive their G Wagon Cabriolets and restored Defenders all over the beach/lakeside until the town erodes into the water and push the price of a salad up to $35 while demanding 'local' cafes bus minimum wage employees in from miles away because they can't afford to live there any more. If you have to stitch some old store mannequins together and leave them under a streetlight to deter any particularly dedicated leaf peepers after Labor Day I think that's still a task worth doing.
