I'm saying no to you treating this as if there were too much space to build on. Detached homes take more space, but they are also a bit more autonomous, so can exist further from the city.
Suppose even renting an apartment means most of your wage going to pay that rent. While an hour further from the city center you can buy something, eh, almost like a doghouse (one-story one-room), but that is a house protected from rain, snow and such (actually how Dorothy's house is described in the Wizard of Oz, LOL), there are some utilities and some land near it to extend it, maybe, or keep your stuff, and in general it's livable. And it'll cost similar to rent in the city for maybe a year, and likely less.
OK, it's Moscow, so - renting here is really expensive even kinda far from good transport, and it's not as if supply were competitive, mafia and all.
There are cooperatives of owners which support some utilities, the road till, ahem, the real road, garbage disposal and some other maintenance together (membership payments, electricity is paid by usage of course). They do not consist of rich folks, it's almost like a village. So a municipality doesn't spend anything on such.
I will watch your video, but I suspect it's about wrong (in such case) model being treated as a constant and a pretty normal way of living being discarded because of that.
