About this listen

In this episode of The Brief, Denise and Logan unpack the concept of housing filtering—how new market-rate housing sets off a chain of moves that can ease pressure across the entire housing market. Grounded in real research and Minnesota-specific examples, the conversation breaks down why supply matters, how filtering actually works in practice, and what it means for affordability in the Twin Cities and Greater Minnesota. Denise and Logan reference landmark research by economist Evan Mast to explain how migration chains form—and why blocking new housing can unintentionally make affordability challenges worse.
