Many countries have much higher rates of renters and still more communal spirit, so I don't think you can just attribute it to renting. One thing that those places typically have is protection for renters so they have an actual long term perspective. In contrast to other places where your landlord can throw you out or raise rent with little notice. Moreover in many places renters can't even make improvements to their house, I mean in Australia you are not even allowed to put a nail in the wall when renting.
