    I’m surprised the article didn’t include a yimby definition but here you go

    The YIMBY movement (short for “yes in my back yard”) is a pro-housing movement[1] that focuses on encouraging new housing, opposing density limits (such as single-family zoning), and supporting public transportation.

      Isn’t the “yes” redundant? Should by IMBY.

        The opposing folks are referred to as NIMBYs though, for “not in my backyard,” so the yes is critical.
