It is so weird reading this thread when I live in a flat and have basically non of the issues any of you're describing. I know it's a cliche but I honestly think this is just a US vs Europe thing, where mid to high density housing here is actually built to be, you know, good, where as in the US everything is poorly constructed with no amenities so you just think all of those things are intrinsic qualities of that type of housing lol. Kind of sad.

Don't live in either Europe or America but sure.

[-] Rambi@lemm.ee 1 points 1 year ago

Right. Well regardless non of the significant problems you have I have experienced so I don't think they're intrinsic properties of apartments/flats/high-medium density housing.

Kool. So because they don't affect you. Disregard them. Sounds like a plan Stan.

I'm disregarding them because as I say they're not intrinsic properties of that type of housing. I prefer living where I do now than most of the actual houses I lived in because they had no garden space, but that doesn't mean intrinsically houses don't have outside spaces. When people are advocating for more higher density housing they aren't talking about building them in the worst possible way I don't think.
