Had lived only in single family houses up until I moved to an apartment in the middle of the city and wow, the quality of life bump was astounding. Being able to just walk to anything you need, not owning a car, having so many high end places to eat at and entertainment venues to visit, the huge security benefit of being above ground level, being at the centre of public transport so friends can visit easily.

So many benefits with so little downsides. I can’t ever imagine going back to a detached house.

It’s even better having a single family home in the city. You get all that plus space.

Ok but the same floorspace my $500k apt has costs about $1M as a townhouse in the same area. If you want _more_ space then you are looking at $2M or more. Sure, I'd love a house in the city. I'll put it next to my boat and Ferrari.

But this plan necessarily only works for tiny numbers of extraordinarily wealthy people.
