Elsewhere too. I lived in a 140 square feet studio here in Montevideo (not as expensive as SF but most expensive in South America), wasn´t too great but it was tolerable, I think slightly smaller is still liveable.
Other posters do have a point about probably illegal wiring and no fire exit planning. And the low ceiling must have sucked (Japanese micro apartments actually have high ceilings, mine was standard height).
