Billionaire buys $95M apartments to slash rents and ease housing shortage for Colorado mountain town workers
In Colorado’s mountain towns, between demand for high-income homebuyers, limited supply, and stagnant wages, local workers — who keep the town running — face a severe housing shortage.
To alleviate the burden in Steamboat Springs, resident and billionaire venture capitalist Mark Stevens has purchased a vacant apartment complex that he is now offering to renters at below-market rates.
The only requirement to rent at Riverview Apartments: The tenant must work at least 30 hours per week in Steamboat.
Why is this good news? Because housing costs are so inaccessible for workers, there’s been an increase in commutes, homelessness, and even people camping in the parking lots of their workplaces to get by. As the apartment complex’s builder said, “The people who power this community deserve to live where they work and continue to make Steamboat thrive.”

A record-low 54% of Americans say they drink alcohol as health concerns reach new high
The percentage of adults in the U.S. who say they consume alcohol fell to a record-low 54%, the lowest in nearly 90 years.
Prior to this most recent poll, the rate dipped below 60% less than 10 times, including 58% in the initial 1939 poll and the previous record-low of 55% in 1958.
The drop coincides with a growing belief among 53% of Americans that even moderate alcohol consumption is bad for your health — now the majority view for the first time ever.
