It's an interesting exchange to read for Russian because here it is somewhat common to have two generations (e.g. my grandma, grandpa, aunt, uncle, two nephews and a small dog) living in a 2BR 500 sq ft flat. Gives me kinda different perspective on the poverty of everyday Soviet living, eh. It's slowly changing for the better, though.
