I wouldn't believe most in the US would live in Japanese style housing at all.

Most homes in Japan aren't built in the traditional Japanese style at all IIRC.

I was referring to the little space and tiny storage. Pay isn't exactly great for the rent either.

Why not?

[trallnag]

Aren't Japanese homes super tiny? Even smaller than the already small homes and apartments in Europe? That's one reason. In the US, it seems that people live in bigger places, with higher ceilings.

The American Dream has become living in a McMansion in suburbia?
