In France we have a state backed association which gets money from taxes then builds new buildings in prioritary zones so that not so rich not so poor people can still afford proper renting inside big cities. Thats why I can rent 126m2 for 1900€ a month which is cheap. counterpart: I live in a « shitty neighbour » but it ends up multicultural and i feel safe, my wife ultra close to her job. I think the state needs to enforce building construction/rénovation. same for buying, in france i can get VAT 5.5 instead of 20 in prioraty zone and also 100k free mortgage. all combined i did buy @4500€ per m2 in close suburb instead of 10k. priority zone ? well then they juste build a brand new school with a small forest on top of it. in this case i agree. paying taxes ( prices are for Paris, i have no clue how it works in USA)
