High occupancy in all neighborhoods
Typically allows 6-8 occupants
Expect 8-10 occupants in a purpose-built *
Multiple students have high rental power
4 students displace working-class
6-8 students displace middle-class*
Now, in only 3 anti-family states
Most cities >5,000 have “Home Rule”
Most cities >10,000 have “Higher Education”*
Fast-tracked unwisely
Another taking from local voters
Windfall to current landlords
Empowers more corporate Texas takeover
Replaces affordable houses with unaffordable
Many HOAs don't restrict occupancy
those that do can't afford lawsuits
HOAs DO care about working-class
Cities already provide student housing
Unfair patchwork of regulation across state
