Many examples of dense government built/run housing work fine. The common problems are not a function of housing but the people living in that housing. In cities where the government owns over half of all housing stock tenants end up representing the general population well and the system works fine with generally low prices and overhead.
The temptation is to only build government housing for the poor, but that’s a well known recipe for failure. The US has instead shifted to government spreading out poor population via subsidies but that’s doesn’t fix any of the core issues.
