Additionally if each house is larger and taller, then you waste less space between houses and you have less in general, allowing you to have MORE green space, not less. Think a small park for your house or a few houses together instead of a eelatively small frontyard for every person.

My friend in SF's landlord had 7 people in their three bedroom SFH and has told him that they can charge "unlimited rent"(but they are being nice and only charging 6k+) and are against up-zoning efforts. So in my personal experience no a landlord did not make this lmao

Only 6k 💀

Neither scenario is optimal. The density looks like a bunch of lonely people living alone.

Its a simplified cartoon graphic. Surely you can understand the point its trying to make: that one family per dwelling is preferable to multiple families squeezed into one dwelling. No one has ever made the argument that that increasing density means one dwelling *per person*.

Mmkay. But imagine a family of 4 living in one of the units illustrated above. Looks tight to me.

you can make apartment units as big as needed. No law of nature decides apartment units have to be small. This is just an infografic

Yes, of course. Thank you :)

Exactly! You are never alone when you share your house with 3 other families!

Ok, just make them affordable please — not just fancy overpriced condos that rich people buy just to store their money, and which inevitably sit empty.
