Social housing is a thing in much of the world. Housing is cheap in many countries around the world as well. Healthcare is free in most of the world and good standard in majority of the developed world.

Social housing tends to exist in countries where housing isn't cheap, for obvious reasons.

And "free in most of the world" dramatically oversimplifies an entire spectrum of healthcare funding models.

Healthcare is not free, it's taxpayer funded and consumes a huge portion of the national budget.
