Talking About House and Apartment 1. Which is better to live in? House or apartment? If I were to choose between two, I'd probably go with an apartment. Some people may disagree with me, but as far as I'm concerned living in an apartment is more convenient. Also, if you're a low-income worker and planning to buy yourself an accommodation, an apartment will be the best choice for you as an apartment is cheaper than a house. I would say that an apartment is far outweighed by a house. 2.Pros and cons of an apartment vs a house. A positive aspect of living in an apartment is the security systems. Apartments usually come with a security guard and CCTV as this can reduce crime rates. Besides, house cleaning for an apartment is way easier than a big house. If you're a sloppy person like me, I bet you would rather clean an apartment than a house. A negative effect of living in an apartment is it's too close to your neighbour. You might experience that your neighbour keeps spying on you or concerned about your private life as if they are one of your family members. This might get on your nerves and you'll feel like you lost your freedom. If you prefer to have a private life, living in a house is much better. An advantage of living in a house is you can keep your dog with you as many apartments are not allowed to keep your pet in it. Moreover, you'll no longer facing an annoying neighbour and can have your own freedom. A disadvantage of living in a house is the sky-high cost. Unless you're a high-income worker, buying a house can literally use up your saving account. Make sure that you can really afford a house and think twice before you buy it. To sum up, both apartment and house have their pros and cons and it really depends on your living habits. So just follow your heart and choose your own favourite living style!
