I don’t think people realize the downstream effects of the loss of housing.
- people need to move further from their jobs which increases transportation costs or they have to get different jobs
- schools lose pupils which then translates into less $ for the kids who remain so programs are cut
- local employers can’t find people to work bc no one actually lives nearby its all 2nd homes or short-term rentals
- businesses cut back hours to only weekends bc no one really lives in the community during the week which leads to job loss or cut hours etc
