       @Humpleupagus Is this actually true or is this true in the sense that “The cities have grown denser and so the prime real-estate area that was always prohibitively expensive is now bigger, making it harder to buy a house without a long commute”?

       @SpaceElf @Humpleupagus My thoughts exactly. Bugmen don’t want to leave the cities.

       @SpaceElf I think women in the work force causing the inflation of housing prices is a better explanation. Basically, two incomes increased the average household money supply. A house is the most expensive item people will buy. With more money available to purchase that commodity (coupled in part by a failure to increase supply via regulation), it was only natural that housing prices would inflate to eat up the additional income.

       @Humpleupagus @SpaceElf also worth pointing out that if regulation doesn't actively work to increase supply there's actually a financial disincentive to do so. current owners will generally vote against things that would decrease their property value, such as building new homes nearby

       @Humpleupagus tbf this would be much more informative if it took market into account. perhaps median in one of the more expensive markets and also in one of the cheaper ones. SF is not Seattle is not Dallas or whatever

       @roboneko @Humpleupagus @SpaceElf Building new homes nearby often increase house value tho. If an asshole build a manor next to your shack, your shack will now be in a rich area and will be valued as such.

       @harsh You could lower prices by making it easier to build. You may even have to lower standards or allow alternative materials.

       @Humpleupagus true. Registration taxes are near 10%. Taxes on construction materials are 20%. Taxes on income are 30%. Inflation is near 25%. Government keeps pretending to give homes by way of lottery system. Could have allowed everyone a chance by removing all of the taxes.
