At that age peoples' roommates are usually their spouse and their children. If they need to have roommates in addition to those, that is a big problem because with current trends it won't take much discouragement from having children to result in a declining population.

Especially if you are poor. People making $150k/yr in the bay area are actually pretty poor, compared to the cost of living.
