I assumed that “affordable” was an intrinsic property of a house in that it’s an objective number (cost) assigned to a property. Again it’s awful that there is a housing shortage, but “market rate” seems to mean “charges more than what would be considered to be ‘affordable’”. I could be wrong but I’m pretty sure that “more than affordable” and “more affordable” aren’t the same thing. Edit: I’m not really sure why I can’t respond to the child’s comment from this but I apologize. I thought we were talking about housing (eg a house one can afford vs a house that one cannot), not the minutiae of the English language. To clarify, I’m asking about housing that lower income people can move into vs other types of housing. I have zero interest in litigating “intrinsic vs extrinsic” on a topic as simple and self-obvious as “who gets to live in SF”
