Nearly every single-family parcel in the region (and beyond) has been upzoned these past few years, with the state ADU lawshttps://twitter.com/SFyimby/status/1018987887084363776 …

ADUs are great but also totally inadequate to the scale of California’s needs

So the SF YIMBYs aren’t in favor of any new jobs until the housing crisis is solved? Regionwide there must be hundreds of thousands of new homes allowed by those ADU laws

(Also “hundreds of thousands” is a gross overstatement of the pace of ADU construction here)

It’s an apples-to-apples comparison with zoning for however many jobs in SoMa. Just zoning for them doesn’t make them appear, you actually have to build them. Like ADUs

Imo ADUs should not count in city’s housing plans, they’re best understood as “bonus housing”

Extending housing stock is great, but experience leads me to believe ADUs are more a stopgap, less a solution — a step up from spare room rental. Nonprofessional landlords offering up what they view as *their* space don't tend to create what feels like a tenable long-term home
