Description
Hundreds of accessory dwelling units, also known as ADUs, are being built across the City of San Diego right now, but industry analysts say they will do little to solve our housing crisis.
“It's just a small Band-Aid approach where we're adding little tiny increments of housing - but this isn't a long-term solution,” said Nathan Moeder, with London Moeder Advisors.
Moeder, a real estate economics expert, said ADUs a generally one-bedroom or studio units.
“Most of these units are small and when you look around at the people who are building ADUs, it is people who want to add a small unit in the backyard and they just want to have one occupant with no pets, that's their ideal occupant," Moeder said.
In 2022, San Diego permitted 651 ADUs. In many cases, neighbors were not happy to see them going up, especially those built next to property lines, overlooking once-private backyards.
