    Stephen Curry moves to block ‘low-income housing’ near his $30 million mansion

    NBA superstar Stephen Curry, who publicly endorsed Joe Biden for president in 2020, is opposing a "low-income" housing development near his $30 million mansion, according to a local news report.

    "We hesitate to add to the 'not in our backyard' (literally) rhetoric, but we wanted to send a note before today's meeting. Safety and privacy for us and our kids continues to be our top priority and one of the biggest reasons we chose Atherton as home," Steph and his wife, Ayesha Curry, wrote in a letter to officials in Atherton.

    It was an attempt by Steph Curry, who was the fifth highest-paid athlete in the world last year, according to Forbes, to prevent undesirables from crowding the area around his home in Atherton, California.
    Atherton is one of the most exclusive communities in the U.S., with Forbes ranking it as the "most expensive" zip code in the country this year.


    The Curry family also petitioned the local government to build fencing and shrubbery around their home to protect the family from watchful eyes if they couldn’t block the new families from joining the neighborhood entirely.
    "Should that not be sufficient for the state, we ask that the town commits to investing in considerably taller fencing and landscaping to block sight lines onto our family's property."

    Council member Rick DeGolia has reportedly said that "it's not possible to build low-income housing in Atherton since land is worth about $8 million per acre."

    Maybe he should pull a Clint Eastwood or Sonny Bono and run for mayor.

    ‘Safety and privacy of our kids’



    Yeah, no $#!T you DumbF#CK! That’s every taxpaying homeowner everywhere. Not a good look for a staunch Tard backer who has ‘helped the homeless’ in the past with charity donations…..

    FAIL…..

    Typical Liberal wants the country full of homeless illegals but as long as they aren't near his home.

    He doesn’t want to live near his top fans… low income folks. These guys play that equality, social justice, fair this, fair that, etc… and then go behind their guarded walls.

    Living in New York you see this type of thing all the time.

    Easy to support all the stuff that has no big personal affect on your life.

    However, tell someone a homeless shelter is going to be built by them or tell them to send their kids to underfunded "bad" school in the neighborhood they choose move to and you'll see more of their real personality.

    Not a good look by the Currys. Atherton is the ultra Rich of the rich of Silicon Valley neighborhood. What they probably don't understand is that this isn't Section 8 low income housing this is affordable housing for the working class. The city workers, the teachers, grocery store workers, bus drivers Etc that live in that community

    Laughable.

    I hope some homeless encampments pop up near his home.

    These were not even low income Section 8 Project housing, these were just less expensive than Curry's house.
