We added a billion people to the planet last decade.

My country lost around 400 000 people (out of roughly 4 million) in the last 10 years and that doesn't seem to have made any difference.

That sounds like a bubble then

The snarky part of me wants to comment that all those people are under 10, then, and should really be living in houses that were already otherwise occupied by older people, but I take your point.

The previous 10 year olds become 20 year olds and so on.

Having kids generally increases the amount of sqft you desire and can live with.
