This 100%. I'm an old shit but I too was younger once and paid rent and lived in/near the downtown area where I live. I totally regret throwing away all that rent money but anyway, here I am. At my old company, there were two main offices - one in an office park in the suburbs for the "grownups" and a smaller one in a hip part of downtown for the "kiddies". I worked remotely the entire time and that company also had a large percentage of remote folks like me, this was years before Covid. tl;dr for a lot of younger/single people, work can be a big part of one's social life.
