With the increasing population in developed cities, it is seen that
people
 prefer to live in
apartments
 rather than living in their separate houses. Like any other thing,
this
 has its own merits and demerits. In
this
 essay, I will discuss the various upsides and downsides of living in a flat. On the one hand, living in
apartments
 has its own advantages.
Firstly
, in large and developed cities like Pune, Banglore, Mumbai etc it is very expensive to buy a house and
hence
people
 prefer to settle in
apartments
 as they are comparatively cheaper. There are a lot of different advantages of living in
apartments
 like
people
 do not have to worry about issues related to water and electricity because, in
such
 societies, there are specific
people
 for
such
 tasks.
Furthermore
, security is a big upside for
people
 living in these societies.
Also
, these buildings have safety measures to protect families from fire hazards and other disastrous situations.
On the other hand
, there are only a few demerits of living in
apartments
. It is different for everyone and is related to how a person feels. Many
people
 complain that they feel trapped in
such
 buildings and prefer to live in more spacious houses.
Although
,
this
 usually depends on the person. To conclude, there are advantages and disadvantages to everything. Apartment houses have their own upsides and downsides. It mainly depends on the preference of the family and other members.
People
 should choose whatever makes them feel safe while at home.
