Is a “third space” really an issue for people? Affordability really solves everything.
Yes, because:
a small apartment is more comfortable when you have other spaces where you can exist for free
in our increasingly isolated society we need more spaces for serendipitous socializing
It does tie into affordability though, because the lack of third spaces is in itself an indication of an over-exploited real-estate market. A third space is almost by definition not maximally exploited, because you're allowing non-paying patrons to take space which could be used by paying ones. Allowing non-paying patrons is only a moral question up to some point, after that it's just the market forcing the choice between more exploitation or bankruptcy.
Expectation to spend money sidelines all the people who cant afford it. Its not nice to sit somewhere and watch everyone else buying stuff and knowing you yourself cant.
Third spaces = freedom to come and go and stay as you please.
Try going to some cafe and never buy anything at all, but spend entire day there. See how it goes for you.
