You don’t think that 2+ bedroom apartments exist in the city?
If you’re about to say “oh of course but they’re unaffordable” then you admit that so many people want to live or have a family in a city that demand outstrips supply. If no one wanted to live in the city housing would be cheaper there. The lack of housing supply is another discussion entirely but put simply, zoning laws in the US are pretty stupid and plenty of other developed countries don’t have that problem.

They’re unaffordable because of price fixing, but go on. https://www.capitolhillseattle.com/2022/11/rent-a-capitol-hill-apartment-from-one-of-these-companies-you-may-have-rights-under-antitrust-laws-to-compensation-as-lawsuit-alleges-price-fixing-violations-in-seattle/
And if nobody was willing to pay those prices, would that be a profitable or effective strategy?
