Answer to the high cost of housing: Corral the cars, devote housing space to houses rather than bitumen and brick paving, walk to and from the car and meet your neighbours in the process. Use handcarts or a better version of a shopping trolley to get from car to home. Plant real grass and trees, allow for walkways, gardens, courtyards and places for kids to mingle and neighbours to meet and enjoy a coffee or a beer. Rent rather than own the land. Make the house in a factory and drop it in or take it out with a crane. Abolish fences. Allow for creative activities that could lead to employment locally. Include two and three stories as a matter of course. Provide for outside cooking when weather is favorable. Allow for boats and caravan parking and the storage of sporting gear near the cars. Otherwise possessions to be stored inside the house. The house is treated like a chattel that can be owned by the landowner, an investor or the occupants.
