Housing remains tight

Nearly six out of ten people say they’re struggling to find housing - and it’s worse in the cities.

But a new Comparis survey shows there’s major disagreement about what to do about it.

Most people reject taller buildings, tighter spaces, or building on green land - and under the law, those who object, carry a lot of weight. 

But there is an idea which has small support, according to the survey - limit the power of the objectors.

The Federal Council is mulling over the possibility. 

Young people, who are most impacted by the housing shortage, back the change the most. 

They also support building higher.
