I did some quick research, I looked for cheap living spaces in Tokyo, and then in Austin. For Tokyo, I found this: https://www.villagehouse.jp/en/rent/kanto/tokyo/hachioji-shi-132012/kobiki-3019/#3DK-5-503/ 50m^2, for about 400$ a month, less than 5 minute walk to the train station, where you can take a train towards the center of Tokyo.

For Austin, Texas, I searched on Zillow for living spaces in Austin, TX under 600$. I found this: https://www.zillow.com/homedetails/400-E-6th-St-Austin-TX-78701/2057083232_zpid/? About 11m^2, for 450$ a month. To be fair, it's in the center of Austin, but I didn't limit my search to the center of Austin. And unlike Tokyo, Austin is not known for having great public transit, so you can't save money by forgoing a car.

In conclusion, chances are if you're low income, you'll have more space Tokyo.

Yes, but the development on the right is going to discover the colony of cannibalistic cave dwellers much quicker, as the high density makes it more difficult to hunt unseen.

What do "the poors" in America get? Right, they get to

die of exposure in the woods

That sounds like a bad idea.

There's a principle in economic analysis called "Ceteri paribus", "other things equal". So, if you're renting in the image on the right, you're also renting on the image on the left.

Sea levels are rising.

A lot of people in this thread are mistaking the map for the territory. Like yes, obviously neither the development on the right, or the left would actually happen in real life, because why are these people even on the island? What do they eat? What do they drink? Where do they work? The sole statement of the graphic is that dense developments have a reduced impact on nature compared to sparse developments. Discussing the logistics would exceed what can be conveyed by such a format.

He's got my vote.

That's a bit unfair to the stonks meme guy, fella is rocking that style.
