San Francisco has only a 1.6 percent vacancy rate but stringent rent control laws In New York City, except for government-subsidized construction, the only rental units being built are luxury units, which are exempt from controls In Santa Monica, California, new apartments are not being constructed New office rental space and commercial developments are, however They are exempt from rent controls Question 55: What does the passage mainly discuss?
