A comment on MIT graduate student says income inequality is actually about housing. Parent comment
Better transportation in outer burroughs will expand the supply of housing within a reasonable commute distance.
Ideas:
* Invest more in expanding public transportation. More express buses, local buses that run more frequently and on time.
* Deregulate private transportation (taxis, private buses).
* Incentivize commutes during off-peak hours.
* Encourage working remotely or flexible work schedules.
* Find ways to get tractor-trailers out of dense areas.
* Actually start enforcing double-parking and jaywalking laws (this one even pays for itself).
* Encourage business development away from already-congested areas
