Telluride's Affordable Housing Crisis: Overcorrections Backfiring?

Tellurides Affordable Housing Crisis: New Rules Spark Controversy Tellurides town-run affordable housing is facing a backlash due to new rules that tie rent to 30% of household income and require at least 1400 work hours a year in town. These changes, intended to alleviate a post-pandemic housing crunch, have led to increased rents and empty units, pushing long-time locals to commute or move away. Residents and council members are calling it a human crisis, eroding community and causing fear of eviction. Town leaders have made adjustments, but vacancies remain high, and Telluride is considering if overcorrections are backfiring as tourism softens and new builds are underway.
