Affordable Housing Jibber Jabber

February 1st, 2010 by stacyherbert
Respond

Stacy Summary: Fascinating charts (via Mish) on least and most affordable housing in the world.  Needless to say, Canada, Australia, UK and US dominate in the ‘least affordable’ category.   But I was surprised that they TOTALLY dominated.  I expected at least one of say Paris, Amsterdam, Moscow, Hong Kong or Singapore to be on the least affordable list?  (I might add, the US also dominates the ‘most affordable’ list).  (Update:  France is not included in the list of countries/cities in the housing index).
