The argument that that the only reason shenzen housing is cheaper than SF is density is absurd on its face.
If your argument is that we can increase SFs population by 10% to maybe get a 30% reduction in average home price, then I agree. But that doesn’t change affordability.
- missedthecue 5y agoThat's why I used more examples than only Shenzhen.
- zepto 5y agoThe same logic applies. Manhattan is only 10% cheaper and yet is 4x denser. Clearly density doesn’t solve the cost problem.
