The issue here is, in my country at least, the people who could possibly afford to buy one aren’t wanting to live in an apartment and the people who live in apartments aren’t capable of buying one.
This is a really good point. My Mom is looking for a new home and her solution is maybe gonna be a townhouse / rowhouse, or alternatively a single family detached BUT with a smaller plot of land, which creates a much more dense neighborhood than usual for the U.S.

It’s not impossible, but it’s also very unlikely

If it were the only option, it would be happening more.
Just because the other options are bad doesn’t mean very much. They’re still happening.
