3-5 story housing with no parking works in France/Europe. No elevators/pools is huge cost savings. Room for cars ridiculously expensive where land is ridiculously expensive. Bikeable/walkable communities FTW. 5th story units would be cheaper, but young people need cheaper.
The percentage of poverty among people with disabilities is much higher than in the general population, so if you’re building for low-income you really need to make it accessible. Also there’s a lot of old folks who can walk, barely, but not climb stairs.

elevators are required for ada compliance
3 story houses/buildings exist without elevators. There is no proposal to outlaw ADA compliant buildings.
