Exclusionary Zoning
Type: Concept
As of November 2026, Exclusionary Zoning has been mentioned in one podcast episode on The Daily Show (Feb 2026). Exclusionary zoning is framed as a mechanism that prevents building smaller/cheaper homes, effectively 'zoning out' middle-class families from certain neighborhoods.
Zoning is a system of laws that divides a jurisdiction's land into districts, or zones, and limits how land in each district can be used. In the United States, zoning includes various land use laws enforced through the police power rights of state governments to exercise authority over privately owned real property.
