Oh, I remember a show which took place in an apartment in a public housing project - "Good Times". Takes place in Chicago. Two parents, three children ages 11-17.
OTOH, the TV series "227" took place in middle-class apartment complex in D.C. (Wife, husband, 14-year-old daughter.)
"One Day at a Time", working-class mother with two teenage daughters in Indianapolis.
I haven't watched much TV since the 1990s. A friend suggests "Wizards of Waverly Place", with a family (two adults, three teen children) in an apartment in Manhattan.
Anyway, at least on TV it does not seem like apartments are associated with low-income ghettos. They are much more strongly associated with cities.
