Half of all *market-rate* rental housing built since 2010 in Sacramento is affordable at 80% AMI and fully 9 out of 10 units are affordable at 120% AMI. We should be honest that "workforce" affordable housing programs are almost certainly a distraction

Cars in NYC are a/the leading cause of air and noise pollution and traumatic disabling injury and death of young, healthy people. They also devour urban land and are the most expensive, least efficient transportation option. E-bikes are annoying. Those aren’t comparable concerns.

The pragmatism of Dutch mobility policy is particularly palpable on holidays like King’s Day, where countless people pour into their urban centers for a national celebration. If a significant portion of them arrived by automobile, there would be no places left in which to party.
In 2021, 5.6% of all trips in Paris were by bike, by 2023, with further expansion of the City’s protected cycling network, that number rose to 11.2%. 📸 @CommuteDeParis 📍 Paris 🇫🇷 🚲
it’s wild that coastal cities have spent years debating if YIMBY policies will lower rents, and Austin just… did it they streamlined permitting, upzoned most of the city, and eliminated parking mandates. Tons of housing is going up and rents are plummeting. YIMBY policies work

About 1,000 people are killed each year because of red light running. Traffic cameras reduce all types of fatal crashes at intersections. When cities remove red light camera programs, crash rates go back up. Americans value convenience (i.e. speed) more than human life.
Imagine how many people could pursue their dreams and start small businesses if we allowed spaces like this.

It is horrifying how dangerous American roads are
In Tokyo, there is no off street parking requirement for housing. However there is a requirement to show you have a parking spot with half a mile if you want to own a car. This transfers the cost of car storage to car owners, as it should be.
