npub1g0tuf634rz4suczwj7kgnecr6cyt0eu9xmp3sp0fku68mqehq4msp3tvm4 (npub1g0t…tvm4) we certainly have issues with a lack of homes for working people down here in Devon.
Note that much of our housing stock is lost to holiday homes to let (Airbnb, etc) as well as second homes.
Also, of course, retirees from richer areas buying up properties - FWIW this includes me.

There are attempts to limit the problem, in some of the worst affected areas, by restricting ownership of (just) new housing to local people and by introducing council tax supplements on second homes.
