UCLA Housing Voice

This is a fantastic podcast for understanding the state of the research on housing economics and affordability. I appreciate that they interview the authors of the papers in a way that makes the content accessible to non-economists while preserving accuracy and nuance.

Really appreciate this as a way to get deeply informed on housing issues while on the go. The Pathways Home series is particularly great: very relevant, important and accessible. Will share with friends.

Love the topic, but unfortunately these episodes too often devolve to wishcasting. In the current series on pathways to homelessness episode 1 clearly states that the base issue in areas of high homeless is a lack of available units in which to live and the costs that scarcity drives. So why no follow up episodes on high density building, alternatives to traditional housing (beyond apartments/condos/sfh), breaking down govt regulation and bureaucracy to speed development, post pandemic commercial to residential transition, etc?

I love this podcast! Amazing coverage of housing policy across the globe. I work in housing in the capital region of Michigan and this podcast has been exactly what I have been looking for. Thank you for all of your hard work!
