Alternative housing situations

Hey, I posted these questions on the Halifax sub. In my real life, I've had a career in the for profit housing sector and I'm on the board of a non-profit that provides housing supports.

I've spent a lot of my career/adult life writing about the housing market, analyzing trends, thinking about the housing crisis, and imagining a better system that prioritizes housing folks over maximizing profits on condo developments.

I would love if some of you would share your thoughts on coliving and alternative housing if it's something you've thought about or have thoughts about.

Thanks empathy team 🖤
