    A 20th-century backlash banned a popular affordable housing option. It’s now seeing a revival. Todd Waller wasn’t expecting to spend the latter half of his 30s living with roommates. But in late 2022, following a breakup with his girlfriend, he needed to find a new place to live, quickly. A social worker based in the Atlanta metro, Waller started googling “efficiency apartments” and stumbled onto an ad for PadSplit, a company founded in 2017 that lets property owners rent out individual furnishe

    Excerpt · English

    Read excerpt

The affordability and availability of healthcare is emerging as a top concern for Americans, with some recent surveys ranking it easily as the top concern.
