We need more housing, especially dense apartments for young folks so they can live here after they graduate high school/local colleges, or we’re implicitly sending young people away.

Yup. But it won't happen if we remain big on "local control", giving control to towns and cities where old people* show up and yell at the planning and zoning boards if they dare to allow anything other than what was built previously (single-family homes on big lots) to protect "neighborhood character" and the all-important resale value of their own house.
