I think three-generation households have been somewhat common throughout most of history, even in the USA (although admittedly probably not in the sort of high-rise apartment buildings where many people live now).

>high-rise apartment buildings where many people live now

Does anyone have a break down of what percentage of people live in single-family homes, vs. an apartment/other?

It does really matter how many generations one crams together, eventually net income has to pay for lodgings consumed.
