The assertion that immigration is primarily responsible for the housing crisis is inconsistent with economic data; housing prices surged before immigrant numbers rose significantly.
Economists largely agree that while immigrants contribute to housing demand, they play a crucial role in supplying the workforce necessary for residential construction.
Mass deportations proposed by Trump could worsen the housing situation due to the significant role of foreign-born workers in construction labor across booming markets.
Research indicates that the impact of immigration on recent housing costs has been minimal, contradicting claims made by politicians like Trump and Vance.
