That something is demanding your city council/zoning board/ISD departments dramatically open up construction zoning.
​
No more historical districts, shadow studies, height restrictions, single-family only zoning, "tiny home" bans, density restrictions, bans on unmarried adults living together, parking minimums.
​
All these things make it far too expensive to build housing. We can have affordable housing, we just do literally everything possible to avoid it.

Changing zoning laws is an important step, but this problem is decades in the making. The average worker needs rental assistance from the state until the ten of thousands of missing homes are finally built.
