I used to live in an apartment then decided to buy a house for reasons such as wanting to have a yard / outdoor space (wanted to buy a big dog among others), leave city life for suburban life for peace & quiet, family-proof (place where I’d want hypothetical kids to grow up in), etc. After experiencing both I prefer house over apartment.
And better public transit than suburbia, maybe even better than the city it’s near
Nah I live in the countryside in England and public transport is shit. One bus every hour and a half if you’re lucky and it only goes to one place, you’re looking at 2 hours minimum to go to the next village over that’s about 2 miles away assuming all the busses you need show up on time.
It’s faster to walk most of the time but sometimes the fields that the footpaths go through have bulls in them so you can’t get past.
I mean I lived in the suburbs in the US and there was just zero.
So a terrible bus experience is better than literally no option.
Couldn’t walk anywhere, my road connected only to a 55 mph 4 land road with no sidewalk.
Wow wow wow. Slow down. Country side is still shit
