Where are all the trees? (Looking at the houses in the background)
I see in Denver they also completely clear a field of trees and pack the houses in so tight you can reach out a window and touch the next house over.
They build subs like that here too - I don't like them at all. I much more prefer trees - I've got over 100 trees on my 2/3'rds acre out in the north burbs.
I can always look up at those 40' tall pines and Ashs/Oaks and see which way the wind is blowing and how much force it has so I can plan my route. I like the wind at my back on the way home.
