The growth in urban populations means more and more people tend to live in
apartments, but there are many who still prefer to live in houses. I think when compared
with apartments, there are more benefits than drawbacks to living in houses.
Houses usually have yards where children can play and small gardens can be maintained.
This makes them very suitable for larger families. In addition, people living in houses often
enjoy better privacy and less noise because there are far fewer neighbours. Nevertheless,
the costs of maintaining a house, from utility bills to air conditioning to security, almost
always exceed those of living in an apartment. This is why even fans of living in houses
tend to have second thoughts when deciding on where to live.
Apartments, on the other hand, are usually safer as most apartment buildings have
guards and CCTV security systems, besides the fact that the many neighbours keep an eye
on each other’s residences. Nevertheless, most apartments have few or no south-facing
windows, resulting in less light penetrating the interior and rendering their residents
prone to depression and vitamin D deficiencies. It is also difficult to customise an
apartment to the needs of a family since any structural changes can potentially affect the
whole building.
I personally value privacy and silence above all other factors when choosing
accommodation. Therefore, I believe a house is a much better place to live, especially for
families with children and the elderly who need more peace and quiet. I also believe most
citizens nowadays, especially the middle class, earn enough to be able to afford the costs of
life in houses.
