Not much.

Peoples savings have dried up. Costs a small fortune even to build a modest house. Zoning gets more and more restrictive every year. Do people actually read and comprehend what they are voting on?

Affordable housing or now renamed workforce housing. No. Not here. More kids in our schools? Some say.

Lower priced housing always sells no matter what. There really is not much lower priced housing. What if any appears goes quickly if it is livable. In the rural towns anyway.

Recession or depression. Some say. Might be foreclosures coming up. In time. For the bottom feeders.
