[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] What's the point of comparing DC to Manhattan? Do you think Manhattan has more affordable housing? [b]Simply making more high density housing won't lead to more affordable housing. [/b] Ask anyone who's rented in Manhattan. Forget about trying to buy. And 'got mine' attitude? What does that even mean? I live in a MoCo neighborhood and my kids go to a Focus school. I certainly don't have much. But, I think this proposal sucks. And it will make my overcrowded neighborhood and schools even worse.[/quote] You're right. This is what will lead to lower housing costs: more supply, relative to demand. You can achieve this by increasing supply, or reducing demand, or both. What aspects of your neighborhood lead you to describe it as overcrowded?[/quote]
