I think calling an 800-1200sqft house "tiny" is a bit ridiculous. My apartment is about 35m2, or ~400sqft, and it's still large enough to have a good-size kitchen and bathroom, large wooden dining table, couch and comfy chairs, a working area with a large desk and a decent amount of storage space. I have no problem having any reasonable number of guests over.

It is the average size of a new UK house I believe, just under 1000 sq ft, 3 bedrooms.

In France, the average apartment is 66 m² (700 sq ft) and the average house 110 m² (1200 sq ft).
Per person, that's respectively 33 m² (350 sq ft) and 44 m² (475 sq ft).
I hope I got the conversion to barbarian units right, but I do not guarantee it.
