“Houston is renowned for being the only major American city without zoning. To the chagrin of die-hard believers in zoning’s necessity, Houston proves that you can have a successful, affordable city without it. Yet, counter to those who believe that zoning is at the root of most of America’s urban ills, the city also shows its absence does not make a city that different from its peers. Looking at a variety of metrics on housing affordability, one can see how Houston does well but not too dissimilarly from other middle American cities.” (11/08/24)
