When it comes to addressing the housing crisis, few people think about zoning. The correlation isn’t easily apparent, despite this being the most powerful tool cities have.

    zoning was used as a weapon of class warfare a long time ago and needs updating.

    Is it not working as a weapon anymore?

        I’d be curious to hear why restrictive zoning limiting access to a majority of our largest cities is not considered weaponizing. Do you really think this isn’t a problem anymore?
