On: Change my mind: Density increases local but decreases global prices

> then why are the places with the most units the most expensive?

Because the most people want to live there and population is growing?

There are plenty of high density old towns all over Italy that are dirt cheap because nobody wants to live there anymore. You can buy a whole house for $10 in a town built for such high population densities that streets are a meter wide.

indeed! which is my point. density does not make it cheaper.

Dense housing also doesn’t make it more expensive either.
