[b]Texas is big and flat[/b]. Very easy to build. California has challenging geography - the only empty places left to build are mountainous and/or prone to wild fire risks or very inhospitable. California needs to build upward to compensate, yet nimby’s fight anything that isn’t a SFH or townhouse.

The last time we had a “New Deal for Housing” was post WW2 when the GIs came back and had no houses for their wives and kids. They had to live with aging parents. We will need another similarly dire situation in order to bulldoze over NIMBY protests to upzoning[/quote]

That’s a cop out for CA and the Northeast. Texas is building more density than any other state. The runners up are in the south and intermountain west.
