> Want pricing to go down then we need to build more dense housing

You need mass transit and transport integration. House density can only move you so far (and it's not very far).

Luckily, density is what makes mass transit viable. It's more cost effective to run a driverless metro every three minutes in an urban core than to run a mostly-empty bus once an hour in a distant suburb.

Up to some point, and it's not even that high...

What really makes mass transit viable is integration.
