saratoga springs number one city for livability and affordablibility not because we put affordable housing in pockets of our city. not because we lowered expectations of what we thought people could do or couldn't do. but because we lowered our taxes we meads sure that our property tax only paid for firing and police and therefore we ended up people ended up having enough money to buy homes or pick homes in areas of their own choosing and neighborhoods of their own choosing and creating a natural diverse area. and so you know, utah does a great job too. we went from i put up an article in utah that talked about utah going from 1,932 chronically homeless to 178 in just ten years, that is what you do when you actually put the decision making if in the hands of local local municipalitiesing and states. >> now, a lot of local municipality states have the opportunity when i think in in of those localities is the law that it is a big if they say they want to build affluent housing that they must have credit space or zone the side to build affordable housing in that community. all of those commun
