I don’t have data that far back for Calgary (that custom tabulation used for the Toronto map only covered Toronto and Vancouver). But here is the equivalent for 2001-2021 for Calgary. (First posted total change instead of change in density, deleted and replaced with this .)

Awww shucks. Thank you.

The rich people will always find housing, if you don’t built ownership for them then they will rent the 3 brm. So no difference.

Yeah, I am just weary of people taking away the conclusion that we should favour rental because on average they utilize homes better. But that does not change the distribution of wealth/income so it won’t impact how we on aggregate utilize housing.

In my mind it’s less about owners vs renters than about income/wealth. Rich people consume more housing and are more likely to have more space and empty bedrooms. (And rich people are also more likely to be owners.)

Did not mean to address that at you, but rather at the folks that claim one needs single family homes for raising families. And amplifying your point that we need to densify, and denser housing types also accommodate families.

Quick update for City of Toronto using 2021 data.

Good to remember that a bedroom is a bedroom. Structural type is secondary.

The general problem is that not building housing isn’t keeping (many) people out. It’s just making it harder for existing lower income people.

Guessing it was some system cleanup process running in the background, top -u only shows you the user processes, it won’t inform on background system processes that might clog things up.

That seems weird, I am not noticing issues on my significantly lower spec M1. Do you have anything weird running in the background? After updates they sometimes run some re-indexing in the background that can take several hours, but even that should not really be that visible.

It’s just phase one, some of the other phase are set to have taller towers.

Great. I’ll call again when the mess is at least halfway cleaned up.

Your neighbours wife and kids are still nice, so you feel a little bad. But going over to their house simply does not spark joy, and you are waiting for them to figure things out amongst themselves before making the effort to go visit them again.

It is certainly interesting that the politician who frames himself as the most conservative is obsessed with regulating what people sell and where they live

Either way, conditioning on friendship biases the estimate. Either by reducing the estimate to a partial effect or by introducing collider bias.

Not clear to me that including Facebook friendship data here is useful. How does friendship interact with the main estimation (national/provincial borders) -> trade? On left I’d argue borders cause friendship. On the right not clear to me how much friendship causes trade vs trade causing friendship.
