This past Saturday, we asked you to weigh in on San Francisco’s chronic housing shortage and what steps you’re comfortable with the city taking to do something about it. We received some fascinating responses from many of you.
But we would love for more of you to write in and tell us your thoughts.
The Chronicle Opinion team wants to help cut through the chatter and get to the real issues at hand. Below are a series of questions surrounding housing issues in San Francisco. Please reach out if you haven’t already and let us know what you think.
Do you consider yourself moderate, progressive or conservative on housing issues?
When it comes to building new housing, what issue is most important to you? Affordability? Economically and racially integrating neighborhoods? Preserving existing character? Or something else?
What does the term “neighborhood character” mean to you?
The average home sale price in San Francisco topped $1.5 million last month, according to data from the listings site Redfin. Is there a need for more luxury housing in San Francisco?
Can San Francisco remain the city that so many love if it changes its cityscape to make room for newcomers?
Please submit your thoughts on these questions — or whatever else comes to mind about housing — using our online letters portal at sfchronicle.com/opinion. Alternatively, you can email onlineform@sfchronicle.com with the subject line “Housing thoughts.”
We plan to feature selected letters — both on our letters page and throughout our Opinion section.
