Lots of boardgames nowadays bank on you having a lot of friends.

Board games have always assumed that to some degree. There were never really a ton of 2-player games unless they were specifically designed for parents to play with younger kids. Most assume you're starting at 4 and going up from there, which is what most modern games assume as well.

Where do these companies base themselves where they thing people can get together with 8 or more people for a few hours at a time?

Most gaming companies literally game at work. It's a job where all of your co-workers are also gamers. You can write games off as playtesting, and thus, part of the job.

Though it's also worth noting that they wouldn't keep making more complex "European-style" games if people didn't keep asking for them and buying them.
