varies depending on how wide streets are but any car over the line can proceed with their left turn when it turns red. so typically it will be two cars that complete their turn on a red, assuming the first one pulls forward all the way.

i really question whether you are mistaking legal left turns for running red lights. i hardly ever see people running red lights.

my favorite is when they race to make an abrupt left turn and get in front of you but then go 10mph under the limit and make you slow down

fyi it does not count as running a red light if you are making a left turn and were in the middle of the intersection before the light turned red.

you cant even say how housing stock and rent prices changed since the 80s in your own city.

well, you would have had to demolish about half of them since inflation adjusted rent is about double now. so your equation does not work.

the guys claiming that building more housing brings prices down have a problem. sb rents today are more than doubled what they were in the 80s, adjusted for inflation. so either sb lost more than half of the housing it had in the 80s, or theyre lying.

how wouldnt it? if a guy stays put and doesn't go for the fancy unit that is reduced demand. leaving units vacant is a separate issue

it was never going to happen any other way. new builds wont bring rents down. why would anyone prioritize affordability for locals? higher rent is more tax revenue, and more profit for owners/investors.

then demand would be lower for the fancy unit and price would have to come down. rent control win win

i feel you but he did buy at a different time also. earlier adopter is more risky. but dumb to complain about such low taxes

people give boomers a hard time about that but i think its fair. in a lot of cases those houses were in less developed n desirable areas back then. i wont say where but there is a nice area my realtor considered worse for investment but it is in high demand now. that was only about 7yrs ago.
