Here's a conundrum:

The Sharehood is intended to connected neighbors within 400m of home.  I live within 400m of a large public housing estate.

If I were on the outside looking in, I would say, of course the people on the Estate should be included in a letter drop!  Of course they are part of my community.


OTOH, approximately 1/4 of Richmond's population live on the Estate - that might be too many people for my ideals of community.  And  I also have the NIMBY problem - I don't want to have to deal with the transient population and any issues they might have with being part of such a scheme.  Or the high proportion of people just plain having a hard time.

Where's my socialist ethics when I need them?

Should I only letterdrop the houses near me, and leave out the estate?  What about the public housing townhouses?
