🎧 Just finished listening to an incredibly insightful podcast that dove into the world of neighborhood development and its historical roots. While appraisal wasn’t the focus (the word wasn’t even mentioned!), its principles were woven throughout the discussion, sparking some profound reflections. 💡
A favorite key takeaway for me was the impact of federal government policies dating back to the 1920s on today’s housing challenges. Zoning regulations and economic segregation stemming from that era have significantly shaped our neighborhoods, often to their detriment. 🤕
Prior to the intervention of zoning regulations from 100 years ago, neighborhoods boasted a rich diversity of housing types (single family homes, duplexes, triplexes, townhouses), catering to various income levels and fostering vibrant communities. It’s a model that I believe is deeply craved today, offering a historical blueprint for inclusive and vibrant neighborhoods. 💕
I found myself yearning for the kind of diverse communities that thrived before the 1920s, where different socio-economic groups lived side by side, enriching each other’s lives. It’s a vision that continues to inspire my own choices at work and at home. 🌄
Kudos to Edward Pinto for his insightful data storytelling and to Michael Simonsen for facilitating such an engaging discussion. This podcast truly stands out as one of the most enlightening discussions of the housing market I’ve come across. 🏠📊
As we ponder the future of neighborhood development, I would love to hear your thoughts on ways to reintroduce diversity into our communities. 🏡🌟
