Our debate today works with the article titled The effect of housing supply regulation on housing affordability: A review from 2020, by Raven Molloy, published in Regional Science and Urban Economics journal. This is a great preparation to our next interview with Keith Cooke in episode 434 talking about how housing capacity influences housing affordability. Since we are investigating the future of cities, I thought it would be interesting to see how urban regulations and restrictions on housing capacity affects affordability. This article investigates how government land-use regulations contribute to the declining affordability of housing in the United States. Find the article through this link .
