In my house sharing days I actually applied to rent a room that was twin bed sized. It had storage shelves near the ceiling, which was fine because you had to stand on the bed to move around anyway. Somebody else got it and I ended up renting a corner of a finished attic (with skylights!!) along with 4 other people. I put up tapestries to section it off one night while my one of my attic mates was banging some dude she brought home from a party.
As a 40 year old it would be, as a 20 year old it was pretty fun. Santa Cruz, California. It’s a tourist/college/surf town just south of the SF Bay Area and it’s extremely expensive to live there. Most young people just crowd together wherever they can stretch out. I paid $450 a month for my end of the attic in 2003. 13 people in total lived in that house and we had one bathroom. It was generally accepted that the bathroom was for pooping and showering, the back yard was for #1s.
Easy. Just get a twin-size room.

Everything you described sounds downright dystopia. Where was this?
