Okay, maybe I don’t know the quality of the apartments you live in because when I want quiet time for me, I just stay in my flat. A simple brick wall is enough to shield from almost anything. Or maybe the society you live in is very different from the society I live in. I actually enjoy seeing and talking to the people that live around me.
And well, the thread is about people preferring single family houses in the US. Those houses on their oversized properties are often completely excluded from any form of community. I feel like this type of lifestyle makes us more and more sociophobic.
In the details, for walkable cities and for the environment, I’m pretty sure there’s a very comfortable middle ground for everyone. We don’t need the density of cities like Paris or Jakarta. But we also don’t need eight football fields of land for a single person, or do we?
