Do you like Houses or Apartments better?

They both have their advantages & disadvantages. I like the privacy of a house but the worry free perks of an apartment. So I could be happy either way.

I live in an apartment and am fine there for now, but yes I would like a house some day - hopefully in the nearer future. It's 50% of the reason why I go to work, so I can save up and have a bigger place the next time I move.

Ditto. I already have a few dollars saved solely for the purpose of buying a house someday. Granted, home ownership is a big responsibility and the market nowadays sucks, but it is the ultimate American Dream.

My wife and I looked into home ownership when we got married but it just never happened. We both grew up in houses but apparently it wasn't a "dream" for either of us. At this stage of our lives it ain't gonna happen unless the right 6 numbers come up.

I actually have bad dreams a few times a year about having to move back to an apartment. I really don't enjoy apt. life. I do lease a home, but I love my own yard and garage, and all that stuff too much to ever go back to apt. life without having to.

Except for having to put up with noise that comes thru the wall, I prefer my apartment, which is a one-room efficiency. IDK what I'd do with another room except store my two bikes in there. I like having everything right here and very little floor space to vacuum.

I lived in two apartments before I finally got my house, and they were okay, but at times apartment living was claustrophobic for me. Didn't care for using the complex's washing machine/dryer. It also seems like a lot of complexes have a certain 'stench.' The goal for me was always to get a house someday.

I definitely prefer houses....but sometimes a house ain't practical, so we have apts.

I definetly like a house better but it comes with a big responsibility. It would be much easier to have a condo and let someone else do the work for you.

A house is more responsibility, but it's more of an accomplishment and sense of pride and ownership. I have lived in apartments before and I never felt like it was truly mine (because it wasn't.)
