HAL BOYLE writes from Los Alamos New Mexico about a unique government town built for atomic research.

Los Alamos housing divide sparks town naysayers
Residents of Los Alamos complain of a lack of home ownership in the district nicknamed Snob Hill by outsiders. Many workers must rent from the government, prompting departures for better job prospects in industry or academia. The town is vital to the nation but cannot become a true city until locals can buy homes and even a graveyard plot, leaving a sense of transience and limited community ownership.
