    There are studies on that, but they’re not super relevant because the appropriate amount of space is determined by how many people want to live somewhere, not based on the specific size.

    People are willing to live in smaller places the closer they are to amenities. It’s a gradient, not a single value even for each location.

      For sure, definitely an interesting way to think of property taxes and how to encourage people to not have frivolous space.

            Yup. All that post-war housing built for returning military had an effect on house sizes.
