Re read the study you shared. It literally said Minneapolis managed to have the lowest rent increases in the country due to higher building. And the lower desirability was caused by higher interest rates that affected all cities across the country. You shared the study.

Thanks for sharing that article. Shows that Minneapolis is on the right track and cities in CA should emulate that success

This article supports the yimby position. That’s a remarkable change due to increasing housing supply. The lagging demand was a national trend caused by higher interest rates.

maga is Old, hateful and bitter. Compared to this young, diverse, hopeful and energetic crowd

This bill removes barriers to construction that keeps even affordable housing from being built. Increasing housing supply is a very good thing for everyone

We can see a data driven example of yimby policy working better than rent control. Minneapolis implemented a build first approach and St. Paul did rent control. Minneapolis managed to control housing costs while St. Paul costs went up

We’re not against rent control. But that’s treating the symptom and not the cause. We can’t rent control our way out of a severe housing shortage. Housing supply in CA has not kept up with population growth. We need to do whatever we can to remove barriers to build

Yimby is about removing barriers to building new housing. All evidence shows that providing housing supply to meet demand reduces cost of living and reduces homelessness and crime

Again, You have this backwards. The only people that benefit from lack of new housing are the rich landlords that keep rent high through lack of housing options. Removing barriers to building new housing gives people more options for affordable housing that helps residents stay in their neighborhood

You have that exactly backwards. Not building enough housing leads to displacement gentrification because the rich outbid everyone else for existing homes. Building More housing equals more affordable options for everyone. YIMBY
