One of the reason that NZers are so opposed to denser housing, is because the housing quality is so poor. How close to neighbours do you want to live when your walls aren't insulated and your windows are single pane?

You wouldn't be allowed to build a new house today without proper insulation and double glazing.

Right, so the new high density housing would be completely unaffordable for most NZers, as those are both still luxuries.
