The undersupply of 3 bedrooms is real, in many neighborhoods in my city you just can't find them. Anecdotally, the lack of 3-4 bedroom apartments has been the major driver of couples I know, who were aiming to start families and who would otherwise love to stay in my city, leaving the city for the suburbs. 3-4 bedroom units are also popular with younger folk, who are often happy to have roommates, and share amenities in exchange for lower rent.

Once your second child hits grade school they should have a proper bedroom. But in “you damn kids don’t know how good you got it” news, I’m of an age where I knew people who had to share a room with a sibling. And there was lots of talk about how that used to be more common. Those boomer kids with five siblings weren’t living in 7 bedroom mansions. They were doubled up in a four bedroom house.
