    It greatly depends on what your criteria is for “better”.

    For example, historically I’ve put up with a lot in order to save on rent costs. I still am (cheap place with roommates), but I’m getting a little tired of it. I’m actively searching for a good deal on a solo apartment so I don’t have to live with other people anymore, but by the same token I’m not willing to do it unless it’s only a moderate increase in my current rental payment.

      Yeah, I have not lived with roommates for the past five years so I’m hesitant to jump in… even for the price cut. It’s undeniably nice.

        I lived alone for a year in 2017 and I did not like it. I was in a 3 bedroom house in a small city and it was just too much house and too empty. I’d always lived with someone (family/roommates/girlfriend) before.

        Now, I think I’d be better with it, especially in a smaller place.
