A liveable and green neighbourhood. It this comfortable living environment a norm for the ordinary working class or an outlier in your city or country?

Hmm for a normal working class like me usually can afford a condominium or an apartment. This is a neighbourhood with semi detached houses and also terrace houses so I reckon it is for those who are slightly well to do or it can be a house with generations like my student's house. This is her neighbourhood actually. I took the photos with her after our tuition yesterday :)
Apartments in your city in a general sense I guess may be better than those in Hong Kong, less cramped, more spacious, and reasonably priced.
In Hong Kong, a family of three, the normal working class, afford to buy private apartments, normally live in an apartment about 400 - 800 square feet.
Those who cannot afford and are lucky enough can be allocated public housing. Some grassroots barely have sub-dividend super mini apartments of about 100-200 square feet (an apartment is broken into super mini apartments for rent, some need to share a toilet and kitchen) and some even just have capsule beds (just a bed size, imagine those capsule hotels in Japan, but capsule beds in HK are in third-world conditions, you can't believe what you see if you see them first-person).
