Absolutely

There's two dimensions to consider here: many hobbies require monetary investment, and many hobbies require quite a bit of space

You basically cannot have woodworking for instance as your hobby if you live in a small apartment

Yes, maybe there's some kind of Maker-space you can go to, but there may not be. That also just creates a barrier to entry because now you need to deal with a membership to the space, travel time, etc. And you still need space at home to store finished projects too!

So people are pretty restricted in the activities they actually can do if they don't have money or space to do things
