- satvikpendem 4y agoThere are parts of the US where houses are similarly cheap even today, problem is, no one wants to live there. People want to simultaneously live in very popular cities but also not want to pay a high rent. Both can't be true at once. ...Or can it? The solution then is to build more housing; YIMBYism, go to local government meetings and vote for YIMBYist candidates. After all, all of the NIMBY people who bought their house decades ago are there, day after day. There really is no way around this.
