Is there any actual way to fix this or is this just how life is now with increased population?
There is a massive housing issue in Boston. The state is now incentivizing owners of commercial properties to convert them to residential now that so many people work from home.
I’m not saying that alone solves the problem but it’s a good step.

They've been giving grants for people to build apartments in their residential homes here.

Boston suffers for the same thing New Orleans and San Francisco do.
Historic housing and buildings are worth keeping but no land left to build up on.
Boston and SF have jobs too which only drives the price. New Orleans would be insanely expensive if it wasn't such a shithole
Atlanta, Dallas, Houston, etc benefit from not holding any romance to their architecture
