That would increase the costs astronomically, I don’t see how that’s feasible… and I’ve been very poor, and would still chose to live in a poor neighborhood with poor prices and cheap food.
Dropping me off in the middle of Park Ave, where a sandwich can cost $20 or more? No thank you.
When wealthy people go move into walled off gardens, yes they price everything to keep people out. But in a mixed community, you end up with mixed and middle-of-the-road retail prices. We’re not talking about dropping two impoverished people into Park Avenue; we’re talking about a community that is reflective of the county’s socio-economic distribution.
Vienna has over 60% of people living in government subsidized affordable housing. California has less than 5% of people living in government subsidized affordable housing. Do you think that Vienna just has more money to spend on affordable housing than California?
Money is not the problem. This is an already solved problem. The only reason homelessness exists is because a few wealthy people benefit from high housing prices. All we need to do is just copy Vienna’s homework. Instead, right wingers are copying USA’s homework and now homelessness has increased in Vienna for the first time in a decade.
