    This is often neither cheap, nor does it reduce homelessness.

    If we are talking about cities, humant colonies are cheapest housing. Buuut kinda crap.

    And it’s also not the goal of that kind of rental homes to reduce homelessness.

    Don’t look like rental homes to me.

      Why doesn’t it look like rental homes? I think it does. We had a lot of buildings built here in Northern Europe where I’m at that they built between 1965-1975 in the suburbs of our capital city when they built a large number of apartments during those years to alleviate the shortage of available homes.

      People still live in them today, they are not beautiful but they are functional, and it’s all rentals pretty much.

        They aren’t rental in Russia. And likely in most if not all ex-Soviet states.

      How do they not look like rental homes? We have similar building in Germany. They are mostly build by companies and smaller versions of these homes are even build by private people. Because like this you can maximize profit on your property.

        Or build affordable housing, if goal is not maximizing profit. They at least aren’t rental where I live.
