20. How much does it cost to provide housing?

I think part of the problem is there is a lack of social housing in the high-priced parts of the country, so police officers, nurses, and teachers have to commute.

However police officers like to live together, and it's not a problem in the USA. 50% of police officers in the London Metropolitan Police live outside of greater London. They prefer to live in the villages in surrounding counties. There's cases where these commuter-police get scared of the part of London they serve (their patch). At least local authorities recognize this, and council housing authorities and other social housing organizations have policies in place where police officers, teachers, nurses and other people who are key workers get priority on the housing waiting lists. Housing allowances are part of police pay.

This can work anywhere but it requires effort on the part of the community and elected officials to enable (and require) key workers to live locally.
