Original Note:
Immigration is not the primary cause of increased housing costs. The reasons why housing is expensive are many, varied, and complex. However, the greatest contributing causes are inflation and scarcity. Scarcity of housing is largely due to buyouts and rent hikes. https://www.propublica.org/article/why-rent-is-so-high https://www.npr.org/sections/codeswitch/2014/01/06/260282186/eight-reasons-why-the-rent-is-too-damn-high https://www.washingtonpost.com/business/interactive/2022/rent-inflation-housing/
