As an aside to this article, should we have a community called ‘safe as houses?’
So with a housing focus, not only Australian housing specific, so including the Kiwis, Canadians, USians, Japanese etc…

I’d suggest “housing crisis” if you want it to get subscribers. Too much subtlety and it’s just going to be ignored, imnsho.
Hmm, definitely not married to the name ‘safe as houses’, but ‘housing crisis’ i dislike to describe the current problems.
‘Housing Crisis’ suggests the problem is new, or relatively short term. That it wasn’t predicted by every bumbling goofball and their dog as countries announced tax incentives, or bank deregs, or whatever housing policies have led to the market in its current state where-ever you live.
But also, i’s thinking of having a broader mix, rather than the shitshow of housing in western markets, but articles about Indonesian housing, or Fijian, Mexican, anywhere really.
If you’re making the group then your call, but the name sounds too sunny & positive to anyone who doesn’t have context to hear the irony.
Also housing crisis is what it’s referred to in many places internationally.
Well damn, thats a good point about the irony.
But i don’t know, i’ll have to whack it up on my servers c/meta for a final admin decision. Just thought i’d float the idea alongside this post today.
