Alki, I wish you'd read instead of imagining (incorrectly) what I'm thinking.

Yes new construction tends to be expensive. But the places people are moving OUT of tend to get cheaper. Rents in those places have risen because we haven't been building enough units. But lately rents are flattening because completions are finally keeping up.

Newspaper comment sections go nuts over everything. Read one about the next school bond issue....hate everywhere, but the bond will pass 70%. And it's not terribly relevant to the project, which will probably get built and will rent just fine because there's demand.

Four packs don't belong everywhere. But I'd expand the allowable areas somewhat beyond the current urban villages.

What was your source for the "mostly families" point?
