I am trying to make a decision. curious about your thoughts on my personal situation, and what you think in general. or your own stories if you have anything relevant…

    No one is making low cost housing. Yes sure making more houses might stop the bleeding on cost.

    But no developer is like “yeah I want to build some affordable housing. Something those stuck in the slums aspire to”.

    They make the shit with the best margins.

      I think it’s both. There is a lot of NIMBYism and local homeowners like to vote against affordable housing. And of course, the homeowners are all old and retired and have time to harass city councils.
