Wonderful examination from @PeterIBanks
These findings are not surprising; more people, cetaris paribus, should lead to higher housing prices.
My research also led to me to conclude the immigration does lead to higher housing prices, which I discussed in my latest essay on the topic “Managing Migration.”
But this says more about housing supply constraints and supply side policy failure than it does about immigration.
If immigration were banned and the “native” population was growing at the same clip, you would have the same problem.

Visited the Golden Gate Cemetery today, where Admiral Nimitz - allied commander in the Pacific in WW2 - is buried
My grandpa and his truck ran supplies for the Americans in Burma during the Pacific War, so this was a special visit for me. Kind of a wild full circle moment
It’s funny/sad that with betting markets we have created a mechanism for super AGI to instantly accumulate unlimited wealth.

I might kms.
Institutional investors have been net home sellers for years and this is fundamentally a non issue. All this will accomplish is further strangle supply elasticity, pushing up prices when we experience another demand shock.

Churchill got a doctor’s note before a 1932 visit to the U.S. so he could drink alcohol during Prohibition.
