A more mundane one, but people on reasonably normal incomes living in a house that's at least one order of magnitude more expensive than they could ever afford even if they purchased it twenty or thirty years ago. Its particularly bad in things set in expensive areas like London or New York or Tokyo. Like being able to afford a house in central London rather than renting a flat with three other people takes substantial money, you aren't going to be afford that if you work in a supermarket.

There was an old meme about house-hunting reality shows that was like, "David sharpens colored pencils for a living and Kirstin volunteers 2 days a week at the butterfly museum. Their budget is two million."

I'd love if in one of those shows it's just implied lightly throughout the entire thing that they are squatting in the home of someone who died and the city never noticed or something stupid like that XD

The apartment in Friends is rent controlled and leased by Monica's dead grandma. She's been committing fraud for years to keep the apartment affordable.

Not completely dissimilar from the current season of Only Murders in the Building!

And the one across the hall with the unemployed actor and the waitress?

You forgot the gifted statistician with a stable high paying job in data analytics which he hates. It's the dullest work you could imagine and he makes a fortune from it.

He moves out thigh, and it's Rachel and Joey living there for a while

Chandler kept paying the bills behind Joey's back.
