Episode 68: Land use deregulation and its limitations on achieving housing affordability
Manage episode 446534301 series 2910426
The shortage of affordable housing is one of the largest crises facing low-income households in our state, if not the largest. While our work at Texas Housers has long focused on solving this issue, we are now seeing a renewed interest at our state capitol in addressing this problem from many policymakers, specifically on how land use deregulation can solve this housing crisis for good.
Ben Martin and Sidney Beaty from our research team join the show to tell us what exactly land use deregulation is, in what ways it falls short to help populations most in need, and what we can do to help those who are missed by this kind of policy.
You can read more about Land Use Deregulation in our research team's latest report that can be found on our blog.
