Here are some thoughts 🏵️🏵️👇

Nowadays, more and more people are choosing to live alone, either by necessity or preference. The reasons for this shift in living arrangements are varied - from economic factors to changing social norms and individual lifestyle choices. While living alone has its perks, such as more privacy and independence, it also comes with its fair share of challenges that need to be addressed. One major issue that needs to be addressed is the increasing isolation and loneliness experienced by people who live alone.

Government should prioritize the development of housing policies that cater to the needs and affordability of solo dwellers. This can include creating incentives for developers to build affordable, smaller-sized housing units specifically designed for single-person households. Also explore rent control measures and subsidies to ensure affordable housing options for solo dwellers.

Government have the authority to invest in healthcare and social support services targeted towards solo dwellers. This can include mental health services, home care assistance, and social work programs that specifically address the unique challenges faced by individuals living alone.

One important pillar of government and politicians is to actively engage with solo dwellers, community organizations, and experts to understand their concerns and design effective solutions. ⏭️⏭️
