Some people prefer to live in house, while others feel that there are more advantages to living in an apartment. Are there more advantages than disadvantages of living in a house compared with living in an apartment

Modernization has been a catalyst in the change of living lifestyle.

This

has created a divide in people's opinion about living in a house or an apartment. With the help of studies and examples I will delineate how living in an apartment is more helpful than its counterpart.

To begin

with, most of the urban cities are highly populous and will continue to grow, owing to

this

getting a house in

such

a city, will burn up lifelong savings.

Also

, having a house, creates a lot of dependencies in terms of facilities, unlike apartments you are not sharing gyms, swimming pools, security and so on. A recent study by Oxford university showed that 70% of the population of metropolitan cities stays in apartments and 40% of them prefer their current living arrangement in the long run. Staying in apartments

also

provides a sense of security, due to the presence of

next

door neighbours.

Thus

, it is evident that, staying in apartments not only helps you to feel secure, but is

also

economical in urban cities.

On the other hand

, staying in houses gives a whole different set of pros, which apartments cannot provide. One can build houses, brick to brick depending on his own needs, which allows you to customize the layout as you want. Concurrently, you can only have the facilities that you need, rather than the whole pack.

Also

, unlike apartments, over noisy neighbours won't be a major point of concern due to increased space between the houses. Concurrently, you won't be bound to building restrictions

such

as no pets, no maintenance work after a certain time and so on.

Hence

, even though living in houses can be costly, but we can see from the above points that it comes with its own luxurious benefits, independence and solace. In conclusion, I would like to say, yes, there are more disadvantages of staying houses than apartments as in todays over growing world, apartments provide serves to most of our needs, making houses more of a luxury than necessity.
