The way I have often put it (including talking to voters as a candidate for local office) is that I think everyone that contributes in our community, whether it's a doctor or lawyer or engineer, or a barista or lawncare guy or teacher, should be able to find a place to live in our community. And that can't possibly happen unless you make it legal to build some smaller apartments, and let folks adapt their own properties to meet the needs of their families, like was legal up until the wave of '70s down-zoning. Make normal neighborhoods legal again!
