I totally agree with this, and I think housing expenses is a really clear example of the impact government policy has on economics: LA and SF have more expensive housing than NYC, despite having worse incomes because they discourage dense development. > I think most people in the U.S. think they NEED that much space (even when they don't). I honestly don't know what people do with so much space. I just moved into a "large" (for me) 3-bedroom apartment with 2 roommates and think this is already more space than I need (1000 square feet total).
