If such a place even exists which is unlikely...no.

A nice decent apartment away from the McMansions but close enough to go to the strip club would do.

I can't imagine why such a place would exist...

But no.  I do not want to live next to a strip club.

Correct - suburbanites are huge opponents of free speech.

That's not why, obviously.

Strip clubs tend to be in low-rent business areas without many homes, and certainly without McMansions.

Yes, because that is where they must be by necessity, since the local governments created by freedom-hating censoring surbanites disallow them.

Actually, it's primarily because of supply and demand and zoning laws, but whatever floats your bullsh**t boat.

The zoning laws are enacted by local governments elected by freedom-hating censoring prudes.  Keeping out adult businesses is one of their many uses for social control.

As opposed to city governments, which disallow McMansions?

It's just that no one would buy an expensive house in an area that would likely to be urban, and thus have higher crime rates.  It would be ripe for burglary.

But of course you know that, but just love finding some sort of excuse involving socioeconomic status or "prudery."

No, you are wrong.  Regardless of where people would or would not buy what, there are laws in place, instituted by governments elected by prudes, which disallow 'adult' businesses.

Otherwise they would be open near their customers - the middle and upper middle class male escaping the miseries of a marriage.  As it is such sad types must drive long distances to the bad parts of the metro area to get their fantasy materials.

Pathetic country, really.

Opebo doesn't seem to understand that people don't want to live next to strip clubs - if one goes in right in the middle of a housing area, you can bet that many people will leave, and the property values will go down as well because few people want to live near strip clubs. Of course, common sense isn't opebo's strong point, now is it?

I would love to live next to a strip club. And the dropping property values is a good thing, since it means rent would be cheaper, or a house would be affordable. I hate expensive housing costs.

Well for one thing, you're a single male who likes strip clubs. Become a family man with children and you probably wouldn't be too keen about living next to one. Second, dropping property values can sometimes attract certain types of people to the neighborhood, which can drop the values further. You might hate expensive housing costs, but if you've bought a house you generally want to break even or profit when you sell, so lower property values aren't good.

So the libertarian likes zoning laws, and doesn't believe in private property rights.  Hypocrite.

Did you even read one bit of what I wrote? No, apparently not, either that or you are just an idiot who can't be bothered to think critically - all I said was people don't like to live next to them and if one moved in people would move away. Strip clubs don't want to move into residential zones anyways as far as I know - bad for business since so many people would be in an uproar about it being there.

probably wouldn't be actually, free publicity, and I don't care who whines about strip clubs. Is anyone really not going to go because some Bible thumper gets his panties in a bunch?

If you had protests in front of your club almost daily because the protestors live right next door, do you think that'll be good for business? Further, I would assume that most people who go to strip clubs would prefer their going remain secret to their neighbors - that can't be done when your neighbors can see you going into the club from their front yards. So it's likely by moving closer to what you think are customers, you are actually making your customers go elsewhere.

Well that's why you don't see strip clubs in residential areas. But I don't mind.

And I don't really care who sees me in strip clubs, I've ran into friends and classmates on numerous occaisions, I once even ran into my supervisor at work. Never ran into someone I knew who turned out to be a stripper though, although I once did run into a stripper at another bar here.
