Where do the people go? You don't want to sprawl (build on every square meter on the planet) and you don't want to build dense housing, so what is the 3rd way?

Where do the people go? You don't want to sprawl (build on every square meter on the planet) and you don't want to build dense housing, so what is the 3rd way? Just "sorry, you didn't get in line for a house fast enough, just go be homeless now?" Businesses need to employ people. The people employed by these businesses need to live somewhere close enough to the job that they can work there. Because of this, you need to build more houses near the jobs, or move the jobs (which creates its own set of social problems). The problem is that there will always be a conflict between the people who already live in an area and want their homes to increase/maintain value, and people who need homes available to them which will devalue the homes due to there now being less demand. The needs of both groups need to be met as best as possible without steamrolling the other, but everyone needs to be willing to compromise.
