re: Is the "housing shortage" overblown?

There is not really a shortage of housing. There is a shortage of what people consider to be affordable homes in desirable areas.

Crime/ decaying cities take huge anm off inventory off the market. Revitalizing cities- having sensible public policy- ie not allowing Democrats to run cities into the ground - would result in a massive amounts of real estate being available. But if we just have de facto no go zones for law abiding family types, and we keep moving further and further out of cities- we will have to rely on the creation of new construction inventory .

That and there’s a real lack of legitimate, affordable starter homes in even “decent” areas of a lot of cities. You shouldn’t have to live in the hood just to avoid buying something a solid bedroom and 400 square feet bigger than what you actually need.

This false. Google US home supply graphs. It is down by 75% from a few years ago.
