The houses are close together "village-style". There's a part early on in the video where the lady compares the previous owners plans for building traditional suburbs to their own setup and how it differs.
Each "neighborhood" is a tightly packed cluster of houses with pedestrian-only paths and 90% of the total land is not built on. Each neighborhood was said to be 5 acres, so x3 = 15 acres residential while 10% is 17.5 (so maybe the farm structures? Or maybe they're in the 90%, I'm unsure)
The point is, the homes don't each have their own 1/2 acre plot with 1/4 acre border. The homes are all within 15 acres. The rest is farms or left unbuilt.
