    A half or third of the cost… that has been doubled or tripled due to enough space that you’re not sleeping together. I lived in a flyover town in a situation similar to the poster. A studio apartment sucks. Trying to shove another person in there is a nightmare, and getting a slightly bigger apartment balloons your rent in a cartoonishly exaggerated manner.

      The more rooms an apartment or house has, the less you pay for each one separately. I paid less than €300/month living with 2 other roommates.

      Maybe you’re talking about the US.
