So like $69k a year, which isn’t bad, per se, but in many cities that’s still not enough to afford a three-bedroom apartment.

That’s a fair point, but if we’re imagining a world with a twenty hour work week we can also imagine a world where life’s basics aren’t made unaffordable by capitalist greed.

I think they assumed it was one person living in the apartment.

Why would there be a max on the working hours to 20 hours in a socialist society?

With the proliferation of automated production combined with a rapidly increasing population, limiting the maximum work week (where practically possible), that employers could force employee’s to take (so not including voluntary overtime), could be one of many possible solutions to rises in unemployment, by artificially increasing the amount of workers a business would need to hire to maintain productivity, while simultaneously allowing those workers a greater amount of time to themselves to do with as they wish.
