Friends and acquaintances massively sell houses within the city: what they regret and why the house is like an apartment on the first floor

Many people build or buy private houses within the city. Even the most prestigious apartment does not provide the comfort and freedom that the owners of a private house have. Constant noise, pounding overhead and other inconveniences make people change their place of residence.

A private cottage, a house within the city has some advantages. But this option is not much better than an apartment building.

All my acquaintances and friends are massively selling their houses in the city. At the same time, they say that all infrastructure, transport, schools, gardens, shops, shopping centers, etc. are nearby. Everything is at hand. And you seem to live in a private house and even have your own garage. You can easily bring gas, water, sewerage to the house. There is no problem with electricity. The utility workers are nearby the snow is cleaned on time, has its own land in the property.

You can turn on music "to the fullest" or make repairs around the clock. Nobody will complain. You can cook a barbecue and relax in the gazebo next to the house. Its own bathhouse, a small garden.

However, there is no such comfort, freedom, silence, fresh air, as in a house outside the city. Constantly dust on the lawn, in the gazebo. Noise: you can't sleep with a wide open window.

The road is near the house. Constant noise from cars and the passing stream of people. They can make a parking near the house and shine their headlights through the windows at night.

People run to a private house mainly because of the peace and quiet. But if the house is within the city, then this will not happen. The fuss will always be in front of your eyes.

The cost the plot is tangible. If you buy a ready-made house, it will cost a pretty penny. You can look for the sake of interest on ad sites the price and compare with houses in the country. Not everyone can afford to buy a house in the city. Often very small areas and close to each other. There are also large plots, but they are expensive.

Over time, urban planning programs are developing and building up more and more areas. Over time, more than one multi-storey building may "grow" around the house. It doesn't matter if your site is shading or not.

Residents of a nearby apartment building see everything from the height of the apartments. A high, monolithic fence will not help. It will be impossible to hide from the eyes, you will be constantly "under supervision."

Nearby there is a large cluster of cars and tenants. Getting to work is always a problem. There is no fresh air and silence. Those who live outside the city have seen traffic jams only in the movies. It's easier for them to get to work.

Therefore my acquaintances and friends sell houses and say that it is not worth buying or building a house next to high-rise buildings. A house in the city is an apartment on the ground floor. Pluses to live outside the city in a private house there are more than cons. What do you think?
