UCI-OC Poll: Rising Housing Costs Prevent OC Residents from Achieving the American Dream 1/2
Bigger cars kill bigger
An Obama-era fuel-efficiency standards for "light trucks" heavily incentivized automakers to build bigger and bigger cars, leading to a mass SUV and even truck adoption by the general public. Now the most sold "car" in the US is Ford F-150 (David Pope)
The State of California gives each city in the state a specific housing planning target every 8 years called RHNA (Regional Housing Needs Allocation). Very few cities meet the market-rate target and none meets all income targets.

Hey 👋 @California_HCD and @AGRobBonta, Tonight the city of @lagunabeachgov 🏖️approved the first #SB4 💒project in #OrangeCounty! 🍊Thought you should know we do get it right on occasion. Thanks @Scott_Wiener for #SB4! We put it to good use tonight! 🏡 #YIGBY #YIMBY
Tonight we are in @lagunabeachgov for the 1st #SB4 project in OC! City's RHNA is 80 LI units; so far, none have been built. This project would add 28 units of affordable housing. The site is in the city's housing element and has the protection of the HAA. They are using 46% SDBL.
Cars in cities are an unnecessary evil, rendering them dangerous, noisy, and polluted while failing to move people efficiently

Picture this. You wake up and walk downtown. Neighbors greet you from their porches. The streets are filled with people—kids playing, adults chatting. You run into an old friend and catch up outside a local cafe.
This is the life we want to create in cities across North America.
