In America, the housing problem is significantly contributed by over-regulations. In most areas, it is only legal to build single family homes. It shouldn't be a surprise that we can't build enough homes for everyone with only houses.
That's not the only issue either.
Yes urban sprawl is a problem and apartments would be a better use of space.
Don't forget to reserve a few square kilometres for parking. Can't have enough of that.
