Some people prefer to live in a 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?

Nowadays, anyone looking for a new home is usually faced with a conflicting choice of either choosing an
apartment
or to search for an independent
house
. Many believe that living in an
apartment
is a much better choice, while I would argue that an independent
house
is still superior among the two options. Those who argue in favour of modern apartments say that these buildings are usually equipped with many modern amenities.
For instance
, it is not uncommon for
apartment
blocks
to have

facilities like swimming pool, gymnasium, and twenty-four hour security. The apartments are able

these amenities because the total cost of maintaining them

among all the residents, thereby reducing the per capita expenditure.
In contrast
, installing some of these amenities in private
house
can cost a fortune, which most of us can ill- afford.
However
, my opinion is that independent houses provide many advantages, one of them

from any outside interference.
This
is because unlike
apartment
blocks, where we have

our building and walls with neighbours, private houses often have significant physical space between neighbours which provide
privacy
for the occupants of the
house
and

For instance
, private

owners can through private music parties in their homes without disturbing or requiring any permission from others.
Besides
the
privacy
, houses
also
provide freedom to modify the construction as per the occupant’s wishes. The owners can

although

house
like

and freedom very much outweigh the small discomfort of unavailability of few facilities.
