Should housing square feet be regulated?

Asked by DoNotKnowMuch (2979points) April 12th, 2016

What if there was a maximum square feet per resident rule? Would you support this? For example, if you wanted to buy a 2000 square foot house, you’d have to show that 5 people are going to live there (assuming a 400 sq ft per person max). Or maybe there is a base square footage for a single person plus extra space per person.

Would this cut down on the absurd housing sizes and costs? Would housing be more affordable or help solve affordable housing problems in certain towns?
