Apartments would be way better than what they have now if they could provide it to everyone. They could have made like 1 (or a cluster) of personal housing wards that look like the current one. But instead of getting to decorate the outside and having a plot to yourself, you make it more generic outdoor area. When people access the door, they choose who's house they want. It'd be like company room, but in a slightly larger scale. That at least gives the illusion of a house. Instanced and would presumably be less server intensive.
Of course that would take away the stable and garden though. They should just make it so you can stable your chocobo at the porters int he cities and just have a potted plant. Can't cross breed maybe, but you can at least grow chocobo foods.
