It depends on how far you want to go back for comparison. The average house size has grown a lot since the 1960s, but dropped some more recently since the housing crisis. But it’s still up, and by a pretty big margin. In the 1950s, the average house was < 1k sqft, today it’s pushing 2.5x that. It’s even larger when computed on a per-person basis. Census and Statista have some data but this shows a decent chart: https://supplychenmanagement.com/2018/07/15/average-house-size/ https://supplychenmanagement.com/2018/07/15/average-house-si...
