I would like a large house with a huge yard right in the middle of a lot of amenities. And a pony. The reality is that land in desirable areas is scarce, so people ought to be free to choose the tradeoffs they prefer. In Italy, my family and I actually did live in a home in a 6 unit building and it was just fine. 3 bedroom, 2 bath. Rather than the yard, the kids would go over to the local park, where they'd actually find other kids to play with, which is way more important to kids than the big yard in the house we rent here in the US.
