YIMBY

Yes in my back yard.

A much needed antonym to NIMBY. (not in my back yard)

The educated neighbors were chanting YIMBY when they heard about the new restaurant.

Yimby

A person who believes building more housing and getting rid of cars would solve the homeless crisis, but doesn't dive deeper into housing policy or fixing public transportation. Usually tech bros from San Francisco who love airbnb.

God, those YIMBYS in Silverlake are so annoying, they're like the libertarians of housing.

yimbies

Those fucking soy boys, sitting there sipping their chi-latte throwing all of their benjies at the glorious imaginary wifus. The weeb-list of neard-lems

Those yimbies over there have no idea I hid a body under their desks.

YIMBY

YIMBY stands for "Yes In My Back Yard", and is a person who has a build it at all costs mentality and no regard for heritage and public amenity. Often considered the 'useful idiots' of the property development industry, a YIMBY will often use social media to provide free astroturfing for the cause. The YIMBY is a polar opposite of a NIMBY.

There was a meeting of YIMBY's at the city council meeting. They want the historical post office demolished to build a new apartment tower.
