Rather than a lack of supply, housing affordability "may primarily be about differences in income growth at the top of the distribution relative to the middle."

    Honestly kind of incredible to show a graph like this

    solid line "house prices index" goes up until somewhere between 2005 and 2010 then crashes until somewhere between 2010 and 2015 then continues to go up

    and not mention the 2008 financial crisis once. That must have taken a lot of restraint.

          I think your "mean"s should be " median"s.

          It would not surprise me if even the 90th percentile lags
