Densifying Vancouver housing for the young generation

Metro News quoted two UBC professors for an article on the need for housing density to accommodate young people.

Sociology professor Nathanael Lauster said zoning for density is the only solution.

“It’s difficult to envision any scenario whereby single family houses [in Vancouver] become affordable again,” he said.

Paul Kershaw, a professor at UBC’s School of Population and Public Health, advocates for Canadians under age 40 and said it’s time for policymakers to prioritize young people.
