Traditionally places like Rio and Delhi had fairly well located slum areas which allowed low paid workers to live close to jobs.
Idk if it is still the case. But it's one of those concepts I remember from a while back that people were looking at to implement in a safer/less shit way.
Aren't there bougie apartments in Vienna or somewhere like that that you pay a % of income rather than rent so theoretically you have a range of people living there. Or have I imagined it? Anyway, I always wondered about that for cities.

Just about every country has a property problem somewhere.
Canada and New Zealand are places you think have lots of space but they still have high property costs in certain locations.
Poland and places like Warsaw, Wroclaw and Gdansk have seen property go nuts in the last few years partly fuelled by policy but also by demand from a growing economy.
Does any major city not have high property costs?
