How small wealthy suburbs contribute to regional housing problems tucsonsentinel.com/opinion/rep
The ability of small suburban municipalities to limit multifamily housing is more the rule than the exception, and as proposals for new housing are deflected, housing either doesn’t get built, thus raising rents by limiting supply, or gets pushed to far-flung exurbs distant from most jobs.

@TucsonSentinel Is anyone studying the effect of corporations (LLCs) buying up residential housing for cash, thereby raising prices and crowding out families?

@TucsonSentinel now the questions are:

1. Will we see massive upzoning across USA

2. Will we see federal funding to subsidize construction costs

3. Will we see immigration policy meet the moment? We are short tradesman and fewer are entering the trades than leaving

4. Will we see public/private partnerships to drive development, particularly transit oriented development
