I'm sorry, Livano, but the train tracks (or 44th at the farthest) are the border of the Nations. You can be "Livano Tomorrows Hope" or "Livano TSU". A society has to have rules.

What exactly is workforce housing units?

It means there will be some kind of deed restriction. In previous cases, it's meant that the housing could only be bought by city employees working as teachers, firemen, policemen, EMT's, etc. The usual rules they come with are that it has to be your primary residence, you have to own it for minimum X number of years, and when selling it the maximum price increase is X% per year of ownership. They're often well below market value, so it's meant to be a way to keep critical civic employees in the city.

Definition from Metro's website
“Workforce Housing” is housing that is considered affordable (30% or less of total income) for households that earn more than 60% but less than 120% of the median household income. Thus, in 2014 for example, workforce housing in Davidson County was any housing that was affordable for a 4-person household earning between $36,044 and $72,089.
