I can only speak for myself. Nothing wrong with single family homes. I work delivery and it's a delight the many ways people do them up. Great place for families. But the market is a little skewed. We don't have enough places for single people. A LOT of single family homes are used for groups of adults renting together, which in my experience is where so much of socialist torture woke me up. We're talking living with unrelated people who might have access to your stuff, your food, your social life, and try to assert tyranny over it. I live in the fastest growing city in America, and until recently three times the size of Manhattan was zoned for SFH (which is 3/4 the size of the city). I've heard counts the country is short of housing units by like 10 million. There's not enough market choice, skewing the prices and having people straining to afford their apartments or commute ridiculously long times or distances to their houses in some places. All of that takes away from time doing what you love. Zoning violates property rights, and property taxes play into this too. I really think it's a linchpin issue for breaking us out of our current slavery. Endless, low-intensity, often soul-deadening suburbia is in part the result of decades of social engineering and propped up highly by subsidies. Even your average cul-de-sac doesn't pay itself off in terms of the property taxes paid on it before it needs to be replaced. tl;dr We need a free market in housing
