Capital City: Gentrification and the Real Estate State by Samuel Stein

4.0

Anyone who has ever lived under a roof should probably read this. It won’t be any fun, finding out how your society and financial security is being swindled, but there we are.

I did find the proposed solution a little hard to digest - fantastical, even, in light of what came before - but I suppose with a problem as severe as this one, there’s no point treating the symptoms.

Very approachable, as well, for anyone afraid of all the jargon that comes with city planning and zoning regulations.
