Soviet block style housing away from urban centers is the only option for affordable housing, and stop taking over 50% of everyone’s property tax payments to pay for the socialist housing projects

Khrushchevka were a creation of socialist housing programs.

Good news. Prop taxes are local and mostly go to pay for schools and other county owned infrastructure.
Socialism is happy to provide the housing you want and funding can come from the same non-municipal sources it always has.

Why are they artificially restricting housing while at the same time welcome population grow e.g. immigration?

Put simply: Housing restriction is largely at the municipal level, whereas immigration is at the federal level.
There are few if any common values or objectives that unite into coherent leadership across levels of government. Everyone for themselves, and the results are quite often ludicrous and to the severe negative for citizens.
