[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Whoever keeps starting these whiny threads is making more and more opposed to whatever policy solutions they want me to vote for. I commute from Anne Arundel. You can too. [/quote]

I half agree with you. I commute from Howard County and a lot of our neighbors do the same. I don't understand why that isn't an option for more people on here who seem to want a certain type of home but are priced out closer in--especially for those who only commute a few days a week. It's not so scary out here, everyone, promise.

But I also think that there is a strong need for some interventions to carve out more affordable housing close in, particularly for those in the service industry or other lower paying sectors that demand full-time, in-person work.

I agree that we need more housing, but most of that shouldn't be SFH.  Suburban sprawl is not the answer.  More density is.  Townhouses, duplexes and triplexes, garden apartments, etc., not just large apartment buildings , although those are appropriate near public transport and along transport corridors.  Everyone having their own house and yard and all is not good public policy.  [/quote]

Yup, agree. [/quote]
