Amen, I live in a small one bedroom flat and we have 3 bikes. We have a tiny outdoor space where I can keep my main commuter for easy access but the other 2 are in the house and I have parts stashed all over. Add in a healthy collection of skateboards / long boards and my house is starting to look like a garage and my gf hates it but there is fuck all we can do about it! Can barely afford this rent let alone finding a bigger house of some kind.
Which is why my local authority (reasonable enough) charges me for parking in my street. They also have secured cycle hangers for residents to rent. Not many spaces for cargo bikes available, unfortunately
Main problem I see is having the space for secure storage if you have a fairly small house or flat

Still smaller than a car.
… which can be left securely in the street
This is something else that future generation will look weirdly at. The idea that you can just leave you car to occupy public space.
Most of the public space is taken up by car, it’s insane when you think about it.
