That's 99% by volume, not by population, right? Because I would estimate that at least 5% of the US population both chooses to live in high-density urban areas—so must rent apartments—and cannot afford large ones, precisely because of how high-density (and therefore high cost-per-sq-ft) the local area is.

There may be a unit conversion problem here, but an apartment as small as 500Sqft apartment would be exceedingly rare - that's ~46.5Sq/m.

Many cities don't even allow apartments that small...

500ish sq ft is pretty typical for a 1 bedroom apartment in the cities I've been in.

Studios are usually around 400 sq ft.

According to the internet, the average size of a studio apartment in Manhattan is 550sqft.
