How did we get to a point where we think that the minimum amount you get paid from a company should also be enough to pay half of an average two-bedroom apartment? Why is it not "the minimum possible wage should pay for splitting a room in a lower end apartment"?

My parents bought a house for 120k in 2010 (still not paid off tho) and they did have to travel far to buy it. And wages haven't matched inflation but I thought that those calculations don't include the intense rise in stuff like jobs providing health benefits
