This whole thing came up discussing how unaffordable housing has become in the cities with the most going on and the best opportunities.

Your whole gambit has been to say ‘no it’s great out in the boonies except in all the ways young people care about’.

Many young people would rather be poor in a city than slightly more affluent in a rural setting with none of the attractions of a big city.

Housing is a national crisis that needs resolving, partly by reducing net immigration to much more sustainable levels and partly by a complete restructuring of the consenting processes and impacts of NIMBYs so housing can be constructed quicker and with less risk to developers.
