More Wards means more sets of empty apartments, and that's a sizable waste of resources for the developers to waste because the wider player base refuses to spend the bare minimum of 500k to own an apartment.

Tl;DR actually buy apartments, and the devs will be more likely to take housing shortage concerns seriously.
I just wanted to make sure this is satire because if you think people want apartments I have some bad news about small houses for you
