You realize of course that just because craiglists has a filter for choosing whether a house or apartment or condo has EV charging availability, doesnt change how many units actually have level 2 or better EV charging available.
So, you didn't actually go to Craigslist and search before posting the wisdom you just simply know.
So your supposed thumb in the eye is foolishness. It just means craiglists added a filter, like they have a filter for wheel chair accessible......accept that wheel chair accessiblity is in building codes for certain new buildings, whereas EV level 2 or better charging requirements are not code and is not a must have in existing housing built under previous codes.
You do not understand the consumer-driven economy. You should run for government.
Craigslist did not add "EV charging" filter because some government code told them to. They did it because someone using their site will see the filter and say, "Yes! I want that in my new apartment!" and will have a better Craigslist experience. It will better match renters to apartments. Will motivate landlords to add this feature if they don't have it.
So according to studies in attached 2023 article , still over 70% of all EV owners live in owned single family homes where EV chargers have been installed.
First step in propaganda is to start quoting statistics as if it means much.
And in Canada for example cost anywhere from 2 to 5 thousand installed. These are very similar to numbers I quoted past year and was criticized as being way high.....except here is the proof for Canadians. (Use your USD exchange if need be) So lets be honest and realistic when comparing ICE operating costs to EV costs, you have to add in installments of chargers, level 2 or better. .( see article for expense to install in condos ) ....and true cost of electricity both at home and when needed on the interstates, and the cost of tires etc etc

Yeah right, you find an article that says what you want to hear and quote it over and over again as if it is the last word. But many in your audience here have actually installed L2 charging
connectors (not chargers) and know what is involved. Especially when dealing with
professional organizations who have been granted an exclusive monopoly by government.
You have no EV experience other than reading that which says what you want to hear. 10 years ago we used to swap stories of getting quotes from electricians to install a 50A circuit with Tesla Wall Connector. The electricians referred by Tesla started at $2000 for the simplest install. Believed they had a rich sucker. But cold calling an electrician out of the phone book who has never seen an EV before typically did the job for $200-$500 plus the Wall Connector.
Don't believe everything you read.

Same sort of thing for PV solar. Parts for a 10kW system was $17,000. Parts and installation from the local utility's "approved vendor" list was $35,000. So I postponed about 10 years to add solar to my new house. A 14kW system with 20kWh battery (previous did not have battery or off-grid capability) is $33k in parts and the general contractor electrician will install.
