When the means by which people live create different interest groups there is conflict. Working class people getting wealthy in an area? Great, more money/resources for jobs to meet their wants and needs. They want the same infrastructure and comminity ammenties as everyone else too, so they will invest in those.

Someone that makes their money extraction value from an area? They likly dont even need to live or think about the area beyond their extraction operation.
