You're correct, there's plenty of space and they're continuously building new apt complexes. My old apt was 1300sqft for something like 1500/mo with 2 garage spots. It's a completely different situation compared to SF.
- pwthornton 15y agoWhat are the apt complexes like? Can you walk to stuff? Are the buildings mixed-use with businesses on the first floor? In most of the country, zoning prohibited mixed-use zoning for much of the 20th century. It was a huge mistake that only be unraveled now. The side effect of that is that areas with good mixed-use and walkability are really expensive. This is a large reason that places like NYC and SF are so expensive, especially the areas with mixed-use zoning. New mixed-use housing stock isn't coming online fast enough and the Bay Area in particular is very anti-desnity, despite the fact that they need it. Restrict growth, particularly growth with height, and you'll have expensive rents and housing prices.
