I think it's a confused message. Not the best meme.
But the basic idea is that homelessness is caused by people preferring houses ("urban sprawl") rather than apartment complexes.
It assumes you can recognize Soviet housing block, designed to quickly house as many people as possible. It has nothing to do with a preference for houses over apartments.
If you look through the rest of the photos in the source article, ask if living like they do is worse than homeless in a tent.
It's one of the worst memes ever.
It's a tankie meme, what would you expect.
This makes the most sense to me so far
