A yes, why didn't I think of that! Let me just completely ignore the broken housing market, the 15+ year waiting list for social housing and scrape together... lets checks... €400k for a small appartement with a 45 minute commute to work.

Do you have any clue how privileged you sound here? This is peak "have you tried not being poor" attitude.

While I don't know about European countries, given this is an article about America it's worth pointing out that you can, in fact, vote in the US while homeless[0], using a friend/family's home, shelter, or religious center as your address.

Small apartments are not 400k, that’s average house price for family houses.

Apartments are between 180-250k.
