If the people living in apartments had a say in how they were built... yeah

Nobody chooses to live in a fucking tin can hanging from suspension wires that is so poorly insulated you can hear every bird flying into the windows as though you're inside a bass drum.

The sounds of my neighbors at 3 am snoring are not a feature you can call part of the "shared experience."

The prospect of being trapped together because the elevator went out and there's a fire... oh so joyous. Not to mention all the people's pets that get left at home throughout the day and I can hear crying with desperation to be let out as though they're in the next room...

I'm quite happy not to live in a fucking modern apartment thank you very much.

If "modern" means "shoddy and cheaply built" sure, I agree, but it doesn't have to mean that.

I feel like the people promoting high density housing don't live in high density housing. It's probably promoted by rental developers 😅

I live in a 51 story condo tower and it's great. Thick concrete walls, can't hear a thing. High above the street, so not much street noise gets up to my unit. The hallways are pressured higher than the units, so smells don't get out.

It's great; I never want to live in a house, and deal with all the shit that comes with that.

This is such a dumb comment. Have you ever lived in good high density housing?
