With streamlined regulations, in-law units could boost East Bay affordable housing stock and economy, study finds
Adding secondary units like this is an extremely cost-effective way of providing affordable housing; the main reason it doesn't happen more is zoning regulations.

Adding units either in existing units' back yards or carved out of the existing homes should be promoted by the cities.
