One solution I almost never hear talked about is on the employment side. How about if employers are encouraged to not crowd into dense cities? I've seen some employers offer "remote working" as an option. Quite literally, there is a remote office opened up so the employee doesn't have to either commute into work or they can relocate to a place with affordable housing. I've seen it where a bay area company opened up a remote office in Modesto, CA and over a dozen employees completely relocated out of the bay area entirely. It was mostly older employees that were fed up with all the issues in the bay area. Some even went on to say that the remote office was the best decision the company ever made.

- dragonwriter 7y ago> How about if employers are encouraged to not crowd into dense cities? You mean, what if big cities had higher commercial/industrial rents, higher taxes, higher minimum wages,and more regulation, while less crowded places give massive abatements of their already lower taxes in desperate bids to attract employers? I think that's been tried.
