What has developed now from the accommodation crisis is "hot bedding," where people share the same bed, only at different times as say public computers might be shared. Really though it would be far better to sleep on the floor, roll out a blanket and enjoy the slumming! Third world Australia, here we come!
"Rental costs have hit record highs across Australia – in Sydney, for example, tiny two-bedroom apartments can fetch weekly rents well beyond $700.
The housing crisis is forcing some people into an impossible choice: homelessness or sharing not just an apartment but a bedroom with strangers.
"Hot bedding" – sharing the same beds in overcrowded rooms – has become a common reality for some tenants.

Probably nothing will be done as Australians are accepting through apathy the Great Immigration Replacement, with no street protests, so this is but one aspect of it.
