The study concluded that SUBSIDIZED had twice the power against displacement. You're saying the opposite.

I don't understand how this is backwards. The ratio of effectiveness is 2:1, so it takes twice as many market-rate homes than subsidized homes to yield an equivalent result. The math checks out. I'm not saying we shouldn't build affordable units, rather we should build both.

Your 1st tweet says that MR has twice the displacement reducing effect as subsidized no? Now us saying opposite.

I've reread that first tweet many times now and don't think I've deviated in my position.

You're correct, @SantaCruzYIMBY. That's how ratios work.
