Cape Town is working hard to solve its big affordable housing problem by opening up more land, speeding up approvals, and creating special programs to help middleincome families. New homes are rising in neighborhoods like Woodstock and Salt River, turning old, quiet areas into lively places full of life. The city is teaming up with developers and using smart laws to make building easier and cheaper. Though money and red tape still slow things down, Cape Town’s leaders stay hopeful, dreaming of a future where everyone can live close to work and community, breaking old barriers and building a fairer city.
