The math on a two-bedroom unit in this building:
Rent= $2650/mo
Assume 3x income to qualify= $7950/mo
Assume two roommates= $3975/mo each
$3975/mo * 12months= $47,700/yr
$47,700 β€’/β€’ 51wks β€’/β€’ 40hrs= $23.38/hr wage

Two people making $23/hr full time can get a 2brd unit here

The Ocean Park neighborhood of Santa Monica really lives up to its name: half the beach is paved over for car storage.

Shout out to the Coastal Commission for protecting and preserving California’s natural beauty for future generations or whatever.

We need to end discretionary permitting of housing for many reasons, not the least of which being that it seems to turn otherwise well-adjusted people into sociopaths.

Yesterday in a committee of the Legislature, the California Coastal Commission defended its decision to block a new small apartment in this area because it is 'a naturally affordable community.' RT if you cannot afford this.

Reforming ADU policy to permit backyard homes statewide is the single most impactful housing production policy that California has adopted in the past 10 years. Legalizing them would be a huge win for Hawaii homeowners and tenants. cc Senator Stanley Chang Luke Evslin

Only in San Francisco can one use social justice language to defend a status quo that literally kills entire families just so the richest people on planet Earth can drive a car around one of the few cities in America where you don't actually need to own one.

Many people believeβ€”with some justification!β€”that traffic enforcement exists largely to give police pretextual reasons to arbitrarily stop, search, and ticket people for engaging in widely-accepted behaviors like speeding

They do not believe enforcement protects people’s safety
