Single row of spaces

I always reverse in, in case when leaving you end up in a tight spot someone too close it's aways easier to drive out than back out of tight situations and quicker to drive out if in a situation. Parking lots are tight places and people are always coming in and out of spots so it's easier to see facing forward with peripheral vision than facing back over one shoulder

Well, you should reverse shouldnt you? I dont know why you need less room to get in, but you do! Some spaces you just cant drive in (although as a woman - I am always looking for them!!!), so if you dont want to trail about for miles looking for a drive in space you need to learn how to park properly.
I mostly find that the temporary bridge I keep in the passenger footwell, helps people get from the car door to the kerb and is extremely useful!! I think turning the wing mirror in on the drivers side always helps too - stops errant drivers from knocking it off after I have parked :o)
Hell - practice makes perfect!!!

Reverse.
I have SUV and it backs in easier than trying not to scrap the car beside you with front bumper. Most people have a hard time judging distance backing up, but if you get used to using the side mirrors while backing it's a snap.
Driving out of a parking space is faster, also.

Men reverse into parking bays.

Reverse in.
I'm not sure if you mean spaces horizontal to the kerb, or spaces vertical to the kerb. In the latter, its dangerous to reverse out because you can't see.
In the former, its not possible to steer the rear of the car into position after the front, so you must put the rear in first.

Always try to find a space where you can drive in and get to the space in front that way you don,t have to reverse out

Reversing in is easier than reversing out of a space.

All i know is that in a driving test, you should reverse in
and another thing is the fact that when reversing in, its far easier and safer to get out (less chance of running someone over)
But better to go head first in when you need to put a load in the boot!
