Thanks to Annie and her out of town sources. The subject of affordable housing was covered in the article from Madison.
I've noticed that the vacancy rate in the metro has now gone past 5%. We are now at equilibrium by ANY economist's measure. I give this warning to all the neighborhood activists. From here on, your local landlords will start to have trouble finding tenants (let alone good ones). It will be more difficult for them to keep up with capital costs and minor maintenance may get deferred. I would advise all those policy makers, shapers, and breakers to start focusing our precious resources on something other then $125,000 per unit non-profit housing for the middle class. Here's the press release " Affordable Housing Crisis Over" ESL, school funding, parks, basic city services are more in need of your tax dollars now.
