The average size of a single family house in the US is about 2300 sq ft. About 70% of people in the US live in single family homes. I don’t know the stats on apartment units, but my guess is the average apartment is about 900-1000 sqft. That would make the grand average for all types of homes about 1800 sq ft.

I moved a lot I’d say growing up to when I was about 21, from a trailer park to apartments and homes, total 6 times. Apartments were generally 900-1100 sqft, trailer if I had to guess was 750 sqft, first house 1400 sqft and my current single family home is 1650.
