So who gets to decide who gets to live here then? Or just a lottery it out and hope people get lucky?
If you flood the market with enough high density homes, some of those will be affordable. The ONLY true affordable housing is to make market rate affordable.
Don't get me wrong, I think BMR housing has a place, but morally, number of units is the most important metric. If we can build both, do so, but when you block market rate housing for the potential of affordable housing (that may never come), we just make the situation overall MUCH worse.
> If preferentially done in urban cores to an extent that overwhelms other, particularly transportation
High density in urban cores makes commutes shorter and lowers the stress on transportation infrastructure per person.
