[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]MYOB. Other people deserve housing too. NIMBYs like you are why there is a housing shortage. [/quote] Thanks, real estate developer. Please tell us all about how replacing homes for families with luxury condos costing nearly $1 million a pop is going to fix everything. [/quote] [b]You're asking how increasing the housing supply will fix the housing shortage[/b].[/quote] "Housing shortage." I think what you really mean is "housing shortage in neighborhoods that don't have too many black people." There's a lot of affordable housing in NE and Anacostia. [/quote] No, I meant housing shortage. The increase in the number of housing units has not kept up with the increase in population. Meanwhile, even with your "affordable housing" areas in NE (like Brookland?) and Anacostia (not a synonym for "across the river"), nearly half of DC renters and a quarter of homeowners pay more than a third of their income on housing, and 23 percent of renters pay half or more of their income on housing. https://apps.urban.org/features/amazon-hq2-washington-housing-charts/[/quote]
