Also living space per person has nearly doubled since the 70s.

This was linked elsewhere and it only talks about home ownership and says nothing about renting which is the only viable option for many Americans. It doesn't say how many are renting vs owning and how renting has fared in growth/decline per capita.

Agree, it also doesn't help that we haven't been building enough new housing to keep up with growth.
