Sounds like a literal nightmare to me. No garden to enjoy. No vegetables. No privacy. No ability to get solar panels.

No room for improvement. Basement second levels. Changing plumbing windows etc. No ability to charge your ev.

Fuck is this some corporate bullshit

No garden to enjoy.

Community garden/allotments, parks, nature.

No vegetables

Community supported agriculture (CSA), community gardens/allotments.

No privacy

I guess this sentiment stems from US-American toilet stalls, but apartments have walls and doors. I heard HOAs, neighbours are very good at privacy in suburban housing.

No ability to get solar panels.

'Balkonkraftwerke', roughly balcony power plants, are solar panels that can be installed to a regular outlet given the right electricity meter.

No room for improvement.

Ugly version: No hurry, landlords do that to you.

Slightly better version: House community decides consensually.

Better version: Housing cooperative helps you within limits.

No EV charging.

a) Likely untrue, especially with newer buildings. b) Likely unnecessary, because there's little need due to bicycles, public transport or car sharing and all services within short reach. Electric bicycles, cargo bicycles exist.

You've never lived in a subterranean basement apartment that doesn't even have windows, have you? Fucking terrible but at $3,000 a month that's all I can afford.
