Looking at New York, it seems to me building taller houses with more flats does not automatically make a city less worthy of living in it.
And living in Berlin, I can tell you that not being able to move to another flat because of high prices, and wondering how long I may still be able to afford living here, doesn't make me very happy.

- anothercomment 10y agoSure, but you can not directly compare prices, you also have to take earning opportunities into account. And your example only supports my point, NYC seems to be even more attractive despite of the skyscrapers.
