How cities like Los Angeles can survive, adapt and stay affordable

In the sixth episode of Trojan Talks, the University of Southern California podcast, USC President Beong-Soo Kim sits down with Richard K. Green, director of the USC Lusk Center for Real Estate, to discuss how cities like Los Angeles can survive, adapt, and offer affordable housing in an era of volatility and transformation.

From rebuilding after catastrophic wildfires to confronting the nation’s housing shortage and reimagining the future of American cities, they explore the intersection of markets, public policy, and education — and how universities like USC can help support more resilient communities.
