Eugene’s housing market feels more like an auction than a community these days, with homes going to whoever can pay the most—regardless of whether they’ve lived here for years, have family, or are trying to raise kids. Policies that let property owners set neighborhood rules and keep land use boundaries tight are pushing out longtime residents and making homelessness worse. It’s not just about buildings; it’s about who belongs here. If we want a city where everyone can thrive, maybe it’s time to rethink whose interests our policies really serve.
