In my city the lot would be for sale and somebody would build McMansion there. The main beef from residents seems to be that kids who are from other neighborhoods will be running wild through their yards, ravashing their women and taking their gold.
Places I've lived in VA, NC, and CO would encourage this. In KS, farmers would complain that the lot could be used for grain, but then the entire state is pretty much a sandlot.
