Market Rate Housing is the Affordable Housing Solution

Host Scott Graves is once again joined by Stephen Box, Scott's partner in Partners in Housing, small scale housing developments in Vermont and columnist under the column header, the accidental activist. Stephen is also our co-host for The Housers Podcast.  Stephen and Scott explain for listeners how a more aggressive approach to building market rate housing in the US could benefit the affordable housing market.  Our ideas are backed by research including the data we offered in the UpJohn Institute's working paper penned by Evan Mast.   We also touch upon why providing economic development programming to empower local residents, coupled with increasing home values in a given market is the antidote to gentrification.  Find Stephen's column the Accidential Activist in the Mountain Times Subscribe to The Housers Podcast Subscribe to the Are We Here Yet?
