For a half-century, America has critically under-built family-sized housing in our most dynamic cities and neighborhoods, rendering them childless and unaffordable.
It's time to save the American Dream.
Introducing The American Housing Corporation.
It's not limited to cities, either. When the organ at a small-town church is disassembled because the church can no longer afford the upkeep, it's the physical manifestation of the decades-long erosion of the social role that church played.

Physical form shapes how people see a place but so does its social use. Working class brownstones can become upper class status symbols.

"Everyone knows I am right that Robert Pattinson should dump Kristen Stewart. In a couple of years, he will thank me. Be smart, Robert.
Thank you for your attention to this matter.

It's not that people have stopped reporting on countertop materials altogether. But there's less "lifestyles of the upper middle class" envy reporting and more "she can't afford where she used to live. Here's why."
22.01.2026 15:19 โ ๐ 6 ๐ 0 ๐ฌ 1 ๐ 0I've sensed a change in journalism over the last decade: fewer real estate reporters focusing on trends in interior design, hot and cold neighborhoods, etc. More "housing and affordability" reporters focusing on housing costs: what effects them, how people are affected by them, etc.

I think this is too broad. People choose between having kids and, say, traveling. Make traveling cheaper and you may get fewer babies. We specifically need to make raising kids higher quality and cheaper.
I believe that Woke / Progressive Natalism is essentially choice natalism: remove all barriers to having children from anyone who wants to have children.

People often conceive of it single-family houses turning from ownership into rental, but I think of it as the rental market turning from apartments to single-family houses.
Austin office market never ceases to amaze me. We have the highest vacancy rate in the country so prices are...going up? I'm guessing this is a composition effect. A bunch of new Class A office space came online, raising average asking price and vacancies

My mind was blown learning "single stair" rules produce more stairs per person
6 single-stair buildings next to each other, with 6 total stairwells between them, can populate the same footprint as a single large apartment complex that has only 2-3 stairwells connected by long smoke-filled hallways.
also fewer of them are nomadic pastoralist horse warriors
