Homeless shelters? Seems to be a heck of a lot cheaper and more scalable than putting people up in 300-500k condos?

  Shelters are a temporary means of keeping people alive. They are not long-term housing and don't solve the problem. Also, they aren't cheap and they aren't scalable. We need and want shelters to exist, but only as a means of temporary housing.

    Yes they should have cheaper housing for everybody. Not expensive housing for homeless.

      And that is one of the primary things that YIMBY Action is working on.
