[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Zoning isn't the ONLY factor, and I don't think anyone has said that it was.

Zoning certainly is A factor, though.[/quote]
When looking at the long term trend, zoning does not even appear to a very important factor at all. Let's consider this real world scenario. Which outcome would have a larger outcome on housing prices in AU Park? Upzoning to allow for 2-4 unit structures or mortgage rates going up to 6.5%?[/quote]

So what is the point of more supply in AU Park? The rationales seem to be all over the place and incoherent. [/quote]

Increasing supply in AU park allows more people to live in AU Park at a given price point. This isn't complicated.[/quote]
So why is more people in one specific location the objective? I thought that affordable housing was the objective. Why does that specific spot need more people?[/quote]
