This is kind of a weird response to an article which is explicitly talking about high density family housing. The streets depicted are a lot like the one I live in - in our case a terrace of three bed houses (many extended into the roofspace to make a fourth room) in a residential area that has every amenity you could wish for within a ten minutes walk. The housing values are high because many people want to live here - they’re very happy to trade off the small gardens & relatively smaller houses against the obvious advantages (for them) of living in this area. The choices are not between “tiny-ass flats” & “exurbia” - there’s a whole range of housing density in between those extremes.
