live in a house or apartment?why? advantage&disavantage of living in a house compare with apartment I tend to live in a house rather than an apartment. Although living in a house is uncommon in my city, living in a house is basically better than living in an apartment. On the top of the advantages of living in a house, there is an essencial point I would like to mention: living in a house enables us to have more space and it is possible to extend whenever we desired to. There is no doubt about that house is a decent choice for a four or five people family. We can build different types of rooms according to our needs. Such as a media room for enjoying movies; A collection room to store our precius collections or pictures; A game room which we can share our leisure time with our kids... I am sure this would never be done if we lived in an apartment. On the other hand, it is considered that most individuals would like to extend or rebuild their home. Apart from moving to new place, people would rather staying in the old house and make some possible changes. In that case, for people who living in a house, it is just a piece of cake although we should think about the budget and how to make our thoughts into realistic. However, we could never rebuild the apartment unless we were wealthy enough to buy the whole building. For the second advantage of living in a house, I would say it is absolutely a wonderful decision for someone who is creative. Nowadays, people tend to have their own syle and detest to copy others'. In fact, we can constantly change our house style(both inside or outside) anytime we want, which there would be only a few things we could do to an apartment. For instants, adding a swimming poo or planting more trees in the garden... Besides, there is also another advantage for living in a house rather than living in an apartment.That is we can invite more friends and organise tons of parties or other activities both indoors and outdoors, Further more, we can even arrange wedding party if our house is vast. All the guests could stay overnight while they might have to leave before dark if it was an apartment. In spite of it, however, living in an apartment still has some good points. According to the sky-high housing price, buying a house can be tough for publics. But apartment would be a better choice. And we can never deny living in apartment may be more convenient as they are more likely found in downtown. In conclusion, living in a house makes life more comfortable and enjoyable but there are some disavantages as well.
