When you mention that the median income requirement is from $69,360 to $167,570, than how can you deem that this lottery is “affordable” ? You’ve had several articles this week where the income medians are consistently above that which the middle class can not afford. What is your definition of “affordable” then ? You are just like how the City of New York deems as “affordable”, not affordable to the average New Yorker. How irresponsible do people have to be to completely wipe out a whole class of citizens because of the issue over affordability? You claim your publication has the title of YIMBY. Yes in my backyard. How about YES in my backyard to stating or advocating for REAL affordable housing which is better than the standard that the City provides which is in their NYCHA apartments ? When is too much, too much. How about a “YIMBY” to that ? PLEASE !!!!!!
Maybe instead of bellyaching to the editors of an esoteric real estate blog you ought to encourage your elected representatives to push for the federal government to invest in a large scale again in decent affordable housing. You’re complaining up the wrong tree.
