I don’t agree at all — plenty of college students, 20-30s somethings would love a space like this in NYC, SF, etc. at a lower price point than what’s currently available.
The limits seem to be from legal restrictions on minimum apartment size, not market demand.
- gabriel-uribe 4mo agoI think so too. I'm an early 30s that would love to pay a fraction of the current market rates for a Tokyo-sized unit in SF.
- taeric 4mo agoWhen I was younger, this was only doable in larger US cities if you had roommates. And was quite common in that scenario. Doesn't change that it would be nice to have such offerings without having to navigate all of the extra stuff that comes from having roommates.
- taeric 4mo agoApologies, on that I agree. What we don't seem to have, is a willingness to build and offer these places. That is, I was specifically saying there is a lack of appetite to offer these. Not that there is lack of appetite to buy/rent them.
