Question: Just what IS “affordable housing”? Is there a sound, realistic definition for the term, or it it just another buzz phrase that sounds great when people rattle it off but has virtually no real meaning?

I think this post is thrown at me. Affordable housing means nothing to someone who can afford the rents and the down payments required to find a place to live, but it melans a a hell of a lot to people who are forced to livle in their cars because their circumstances do not allow the ability to pay rent or save for a down payment.
If you do not know what affordable housing means you need to get out of the bubble and see what is happening in the real world.
