You can also think China and eastern bloc. What people want is not high density housing but high density luxury living. Every home is no less than 1200 sq ft and two cars and 2 kids if it’s a family..and a million dollar. This is not sustainable high density. It’s a scam.
You can’t compare Asian and European (i have lived in both places)high density building to what is touted in the Bay Area.
There's little evidence that "people" all want 1200 sq ft houses in the US. They are a zoning standard but a lot of zoning is a scam to push low density, extensive development.
