    I’m confused. The WFH movement should be flushing people AWAY from city centers, which should mean less pressure in already expensive areas. That’s something that should make affordable housing more common.

      Those people go move to the small towns with limited housing, and jack up the prices there. Happened in Ontario, houses are passing a million dollars over an hour away from Toronto, when those houses used to go in the low hundred thousands.

      It’s the opposite for everyone who doesn’t live in a city. Long Island NY is already expensive on a regular day, all the people leaving NYC for the suburbs drove prices through the roof. It’s a similar story in places outside of cities all over the country.
