More people lived in those small houses than today too, but strangely the number of people living in a house is increasing very recently reversing a trend of shrinking family size for decades, that’s because kids are moving back in, 58% of young adults are still living at home, 62% of those contribute nothing to family expenses yet apparently are responsible for a surge in luxury items from $1,000+ phones, smart watches to $5 cups of coffee etc.

Add in the number of divorces (they often aren’t cheap) child support etc. and that adds to younger people no longer being able to afford airplanes etc.
