I agree, I wish we would target our housing crisis at the root, our outdated zoning laws. The laws only allow low density single family housing.

The ensures car dependency and adds additional cost.

Car dependancy is bleeding many cities dry. It is simply too expensive abd destructive to maintain at this scale.

Don't forget onerous code issues have increased the cost of building a lot. Every year there's another change that increases cost for minimal improvement in safety or efficiency. It's like the people writing code have their raises based on how many unnecessary changes they get accepted into the rules every year.
