What would be preferable is more housing and better infrastructure, because the current living cost is toxic to the economy. The cost of living is still high in the suburbs where support workers (cleaners, plumbers, etc.) can afford to live, but they pushed outer regions y/y while the commuting time and cost is higher. We will end up being uncompetitive just because we have to pay extra for the employees living cost. This can be acceptable for the financial and tech sector, but what will a locksmith or street food owner do? And this happens just because there is no city planning and more housing. These prices are artificially high.
