[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]At the end of the day, no middle class families are moving into 4-plexes. Like everyone else, they want a SFH, not some lame townhouse with zero parking.

Adding density just brings in more young people, mostly those that used to live in DC but now want a bigger place to support WFH. [/quote]

Yep.

And its fine to debate the merits of increasing the density, but its insulting to suggest families are going to be buying these 750k duplexes or condos.   It will be young yuppies.   Lets at least ne honest about that.[/quote]

Middle-class families aren't going to move into unaffordable fourplexes, they are going to hold out for even more unaffordable detached houses?

But also those fourplexes are going to be loud because of all of the families living in them?[/quote]

No... they are going to get their SFH where they can afford to!  Like always. [/quote]

No they don't always!  What are you talking about?  Many, many families around here live in townhouses or condos!  Get out of your bubble.[/quote]

Yes, yes they do.

But not at those price points.

I lived with my family in a townhouse too.   It wasnt 750k.

The people, with families,  paying 750k do not choose multi family. [/quote]

I'm a DP, but yes, get out of your bubble. Everyone doesn't have exactly the same preferences or make the same choices as you do.
