A big part of the problem is simply the fact that there isn't a lot of buildable land around here, a lot of people bought it up decades ago, and the value of land around here keeps going up. Nowhere are market forces more intense than in real estate.
Also, how we house people in need is a miserably shitty nightmare of a system that needs both funding and more protections for tenants and landlords.
