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.

You’re welcome and I’m sorry to show you that.
So anyway that’s a great example of why we moved from the US to Scandinavia (Hej fra Danmark)
Welcome to the Nordics, min ven. <3
Although despite your good fortune, I do worry for the rest of America, despite having no intentions of going there.
