We’re shelling out just $469 per person on housing while our peers spend $605—22% less than we should, and that’s a disgrace when families are struggling to keep a roof over their heads. They’re out there building proper homes for their people, but here we’re stuck with crumbs at $590, still below what we need to fix this mess once and for all.
