To be blunt, I resent the position that renters cannot form part of a "real community" and condo owner-occupants are "crazy".

That's not how I interpreted the above comments, but rather the built environment of absent investor developments are harming community development. The investors, who won't live there, have no reason to demand high quality construction, usable amenities, public spaces, etc. They may even be opposed to them in order to save money (unless it's cheap and marketable!).

Renters in general are more transient (mobility is a huge benefit of renting after all), which hinders community development. But I would bet a huge number of renters are "forced" into transiency because the homes they are renting weren't built with quality of life in mind.
