Deep dives
Housing Deregulation Can Drive Economic Productivity
Housing deregulation can lead to economic gains by enabling more construction and addressing regulations that hinder building, particularly in high-demand areas like cities. These regulations stifle construction diversity, such as skyscrapers in cities and multi-family housing in suburbs, impacting overall living space availability and affordability. Removing such hindrances can create more urban opportunities, spacious living options, and foster economic growth.
