30 years ago I did not need to rent a 20m² studio. As a young college student I rented a spacious 750 sq. ft. 1-bedroom, furnished apartment that was more than affordable on my paycheck from driving a forklift at the pipe yard.

Currently it's impossible to rent 70 sqmt furnished apartment anywhere in the developed world from a warehouse, agriculture, or hospitality job. Maybe if you worked in Amsterdam and lived in Cambodia.
