*'''AIMBY''': Already In My Back Yard: the position that a given land use is already concentrated in some area, and should be distributed to other areas. For example, a concentration of low-income housing or social services facilities. [contributed via Twitter from an activist in San Jose, California, opposing new Affordable Housing facilities in her neighborhood]. <br/>
*'''NIABY''': Not In Anyone's Back Yard: term to describe opposition to land-uses which should not be allowed anywhere - for example, unregulated industrial polluters. Note, this is meaning mainly expressed by 'NIMBY' in Jane Anne Morris, ''Not In My Back Yard: The Handbook'' (1994), pictured at right. <br/>
