Most of this is either a very atypical experience or just made up. And obviously is from the perspective of a kid on his own for the first time. Being able to spend most of your money on renting a bachelor apartment and not afford a car doesn't sound too appealing for most adults.

It's literally my own experience, and most of my friends who live by themselves have said similar things.

Most people my age don't want a car, we want to live in the city center. People that live with their parents have a car usually, but that's it. It's not a big deal. I get that it can be hard to understand if you've lived in awful car dependent cities your whole life though.
