Exactly, all I see is anguish that someone cannot afford the type of housing or neighborhood for the same price as where they have to resort to living now, obviously not satisfied with their options.  I don't see millions descending upon DC in search of homes and whoever lives here or comes and goes seems to find place to live according to the budget.  My working class family managed to buy homes in South Arlington and Silver Spring and further out burbs to get nicer homes, they are not rich or even professionals.  My wealthier friends all own decent homes in NWDC, Mclean, Bethesda, GF, Clarendon. My poor cousin lives in a garden apartment zoned for Longfellow, because that's all she can afford and because she is dead set on her kid going there, but she is not homeless and doesn't have to resort to living in unsafe area.  My DINK friends rent a luxury condo in trendy part of DC and my disabled low income relative lives in an apartment in NWDC.  Where is the crisis other than people with LMC budget wanting to live UMC lifestyle?[/quote]
