There is a housing crisis everywhere in the Western world. I have noticed in each of the three countries I've lived in (USA, Iceland, The Netherlands). The specifics differ between countries, but the end result is always the same: lack of housing drives prices up rapidly, pricing most people out of the market. At what point will it break?
Nowhere near enough new construction. Massive interest rates (~10% in 2024).
Nitrogen crisis. Government deadlock and bickering over unrelated issues. Nothing built. Attempting to solve problems by blaming external parties.
Increasingly dystopian wealth inequality.
