    Revisiting Who Can Afford Housing in Bend?
    by Damon Runberg
    May 10, 2021

    I wont get into policy solutions or ideas, but it is important to understand that many hardworking households in our community face the very real question, can I afford to live here?

    Summary, 73% of Bend residents cannot afford Bend real estate. This POWDR Fast Track pass is the most tone-deaf move a corporation could do during time of great inequality across America.

    But hey, I see three houses were torn down along the Deschutes River downtown Bend to make way for one home on three lots. Bend city council, Deschutes land use planning, take a bow. Way to foster the division.
