      While market urbanists and other kinds of urbanists agree that the traditional city and town formats should be legal, they often disagree on many other things. Market urbanists generally do not support explicit zoning rules that require affordable housing as part of a new development, arguing that such rules can make it economically infeasible to build new housing at all. Other types of urbanists, on the other hand, often believe that pure deregulation will not solve most city problems on their own, such as the need for affordable housing.
