The landlord would sure prefer option 2.

The meth head neighbor fighting with the scary guy who is always mean mugging people, the shoddy repairs and maintenance done to the lowest standards, the ever increasing rent even though the building is paid off…

We have plenty of space, we just need an economy that allows people to afford a single family home. A sfh can be built with nature in mind… the earth has plenty of room for 10 billion people.

There is a great deal of difference in density between these options:

I can understand not wanting to live in a multi story apartment building. But for those people, some percentage of them would still be ok with one of the first two images here. We don't all have to go with the third one if we want something more independent.
