YouTube Description

as posted by the channel

A listener in Columbus Ohio called in to discuss housing. Like in much of the country, rents in Columbus have skyrocketed. A new housing development in the works is well outside the price range of someone with a median income in the city. What can we do to solve the housing crisis?

My name is Jason and I'm from columbus ohio. Jason from Columbus Ohio, what's on your mind? okay so i have more recently started my journey into leftism. i was probably more center center right about a year and a half ago before covid started. so i'm still trying to find my place i guess politically. and i'm hoping that you guys can reconcile like an issue i'm having with affordable housing in columbus and around columbus. okay. so my they just dropped a couple days ago that between Columbus and Dayton they have rezoned a bunch of land there. It's called springfield. It's going to be just east of springfield. for housing. they're going to build apartments on it. and they're going to build like housing on it. and if you guys are unaware Columbus is in the midst of a pretty brutal housing crisis. the houses here are unaffordable like to just a drastic extent in my opinion. and rent here around the city and within the city is well over a thousand dollars where the median income is only like fifty thousand dollars. so that to me is also what i would consider to be unaffordable. okay so the new housing they are building is going to be single-family homes some of them. which are going to cost from three hundred thousand to six hundred thousand dollars per home. and then the apartments they are building are being built by a private investment group called boar. and they have housing in and around columbus that cost around 1400 a month to rent.
