Proper roommate response is to dump all that stuff in their bedroom and have a big fight when they get back, both feeling entirely smugly justified for your own behavior.

when I had a roommate landlord, he had the decency to pay for a cleaner to come every two weeks.

he was also on vacation a lot. the house was owned by he and two friends who were married (probably a polycule) and when the couple got divorced they decided to sell the house. my guy couldn’t afford to buy out the rest so he and I were thrown out and the house was put on the market.

he probably could have afforded to buy it out if he hadn’t been spending thousands of dollars a month on luxury dog food and going on trips to Hawaii every month, too. lovely house and my favorite housemate.


e: also he paid money to go to Esalen twice when I was there https://www.esalen.org

nyt lol but I thought the house size segment was interesting, as someone that loves small spaces

also you have tons of older people stuck in these oversized homes and they just can't take care of them

i'm glad my city (minneapolis) got rid of single family zoning, though I don't know if it will have much effect, as it doesn't actually require you to build something different

quote:

..

In many ways, the nation’s housing stock has grown out of sync with these shifting demographics. Many solo adults live in homes with at least three bedrooms, census data shows, but find that downsizing is not easy because of a shortage of smaller homes in their towns and neighborhoods.

..

Living solo in homes with three or more bedrooms sounds like a luxury but, experts said, it is a trend driven less by personal choice than by the nation’s limited housing supply. Because of zoning and construction limitations in many cities and towns, there is a nationwide shortage of homes below 1,400 square feet, which has driven up the cost of the smaller units that do exist, according to research from Freddie Mac.

Forty years ago, units of less than 1,400 square feet made up about 40 percent of all new home construction; today, just 7 percent of new builds are smaller homes, despite the fact that the number of single-person households has surged. This has made it more difficult for older Americans to downsize, as a large, aging house can often command less than what a single adult needs to establish a new, smaller home and pay for their living and health care expenses in retirement.

Minimum lot sizes + habitable square footages + mandatory setbacks are a huge part of why anyone under 40 can't afford a place of their own anymore.
