Much of the data in the article support that it’s relatively unaffordable, and that it’s gotten worse over time. Anecdotally, not a single one of my friends parents lived with roommates by 30, but every single person I know has roommates.
The factor of square footage can be explained by cheaper materials.

Anecdotally in Boston there has been a longstanding push towards "family housing" this results in a relative oversupply of 5+ bedroom units that are almost exclusively leased to large groups.
