House or flat
Where do you think it is better to live and why? Is it better to live in a single-family house or in an apartment? I wonder what life path to take 🙂

Is it better to live at home or in a block of flats? You can't make as much noise in the block of flats as you can make noise in the house. At home, you don't have the same rent as in many apartment blocks.
But the house also costs money, you fix any failures yourself. Sometimes the cooperative will help in the apartment. At home, you also take care of the lawn, fence, etc. In the block, this does not apply to you.
I prefer a house because I like to have a lot of space. I live in a house of 160 m. An apartment of this size is not possible.
It is impossible to clearly state whether a house or an apartment is a better choice, because each option has its advantages and disadvantages, and the final decision depends on individual preferences, needs and financial capabilities. Choosing between a house and an apartment can be easier after considering a few key factors:
1. Costs: Apartments tend to be cheaper than houses, both to buy and to maintain. The house, in turn, can offer more freedom and the possibility of expansion in the future.
2. Location: Apartments are often located closer to the city center, which facilitates access to work, services and entertainment. Houses are usually located in the suburbs or in the countryside, which offers peace and more space.
3. Privacy and space: A house usually offers more privacy and space, both inside and out. The apartment can be more compact and create constraints in terms of storage and lifestyle.
4. Community: In the apartment there is a greater chance to establish relationships with neighbors and participate in community life. At home, these relationships can be more difficult to establish if neighbors live farther apart.
5. Security: Apartments are often considered safer than houses, especially if they are in gated communities or buildings with security.
Ultimately, the choice between a house and an apartment depends on each person's preferences, lifestyle and budget. The key is to carefully analyze all the factors and make an informed decision.
I cannot imagine cleaning a house with an area of 160 m, so I live in an apartment of 60 m and it is completely sufficient for me.
