Cheap for who, though?

As an individual I can't change society but I can choose where to live. So if rent in the city is 4K for 1 bedroom and in the suburb it's 2K for 3 bedrooms, suburb is cheaper.

We are talking about the system not the cost for the individual. The whole point is that hidden subsidies (and explicit rules) distort the system.
