The problem with your stereotype is that property is a poor measure of wealth. Likely the house on your street belonged to a parent of the folks who live in Ancaster. They might not have enough to buy two houses, but they can afford to pay property taxes on an inherited house, in the hopes that one day it might be worth something. If that's the case though, letting the place crumble isn't helping their income potential. They should sell it for whatever they can get, and use the money to clean up their Ancaster home!
Congrats with your success at the bylaw office. You're inspiring me!
