Can you see this as part of the housing market in your fair city ? that might be possible as the article stated for the cost/affordability
If you were single would you live in such a small apt unit ? as long there was much larger community space/room

Why don't you knock it off with them negative waves?
Why don't you dig how beautiful it is out here?
Why don't you say something righteous and hopeful for a change?

Are you sure you're not hurt ?
No. Just some parts wake up faster than others.
Broke parts take a little longer, though.
From Electric Horseman (1979)
I lived in a 400 sqft efficiency apartment when I lived in DC. I think they make sense in very specific markets like NYC and SF.

I agree with Brock, here in flyover land we don't like your big city small ideas. Besides we have land we can build on.
Need a planner? Why not Dvd?
The micro apartments tap into different demographic groups with a lower price point than conventional market rate rentals. The price per square foot is still the same. A larger, standard studio, let's say 400-550 SF, is still going to price out a ton of people. Developers are catering to people willing to trade-in furniture and belongings to live at a prime location, which is a personal choice. How can they sell this concept to young families? Can their be a micro 1 bedroom apartment? Most importantly, will the cost stay low over time? Increasing a neighborhood's density may help local businesses but additional wear and tear could increase exponentially on older infrastructure.

Why am I always reminded of this gem whenever we talk about small apartments?
