"Too often, California is a place where teachers, nurses,
police and firefighters struggle to find affordable housing for
their families, where time spent in traffic rivals time spent at
home, and where a majority of our power plants, schools, hospitals,
and public buildings are growing old and desperately in need of
repair. Over the next 20 years, California will add 6 million jobs
and 12 million people who will need at least 4 million new homes.
This growth in population will come primarily from children born
to existing families, a fact not yet understood by most Californians."

California, the final report of the Commission on Building
for the 21st Century, February 2002. |
