What problem would you like to solve?

Housing Cost

Why is it important to solve? Why is it relevant for the community?

A lot of communities area, I wouldn't be able to get or afford due to over charging in price or you would have to participate in lottery/waiting list for affordable housing where a individual family live all their life.

What idea do you have to address the problem?

Modified housing cost to fit those on a fixed income. Or give these properties owners more of tax break to house more individuals at least 30 percent to 35 percent.

Who would that help?

It would benefit the individual and properties owners

What NYC borough would benefit from your idea?

Manhattan
