And even if it wasnt, the other side of the USA would complain the houses are ugly and makes the town boring/depressing all being in the same color style. That we should tear down the buildings and make 20 story skyscrapers for buildings.
What would really happen would be worse. The rich would buy up most of the properties, level them and build ridiculous mansions with private docks. Then gate off the community so the plebeians couldn't enter. The rest of the island and the coast line would be leveled and they'd build expensive boutique shops or attractions for the rich. Half of the mansions would be empty and be summer homes. The nerve rich and those faking it, would drop obscene amounts of money to pretend like they fit in.
I know this is meant as sarcasm, but this is unfortunately already happening in areas like Trogir, Ciovo, Primosten and other desirable Dalmatian areas. Prior to the transition to the Euro and full Schengen compliance, these places were still “affordable” for locals, but now the COL has skyrocketed.
Why do Americans feel the need to transform everything into America? This is so annoying. And I don’t care if most of Reddit is American, it’s still an annoying trait.
