Interesting. My theory is that as the exurbs developed and people moved further away from the cities, home sizes got bigger. For instance if you drive 2 hours outside New York you can find huge 3 story houses that cost much less than a tiny house with a tiny yard in the older bedroom communities closer to the city. But then you have a terribly long commute and as you said crazy amounts of upkeep. I think millennials saw their parents dealing with this and they value living closer to the city.
