Disagree. A detached house with yard unlocks room for so many hobbies. Like planting a vegetable garden. Playing instruments or music without pissing off the neighbours. Beekeeping. Woodworking. Backyard astronomy. Backyard BBQ. Bonfires. Etc.
Suburbs themselves are not a dirty word. It’s how some people choose to execute it that is the problem.
Yeah, I agree that detached houses should be an option. But the degree to which they are the option is inane. We (in USAmerica at least) need to be building like a third the detached houses we are and like a hundred times the mid-density housing we are.
An option sure, but let everyone pay the true cost instead of having suburbs being subsidised by those that don’t want to or can’t live like that…
Absolutely
Yea, I just want enough ground between myself and my neighbors that I can do noisy shit at odd hours without disturbing them too much and vice versa. I’m more of a night owl and having to sit on my hands for hours while I wait for daylight is annoying.
Touching grass, you forgot the most important one
Yup. You either live for the lawn or pay for landscapers while you’re at the gym getting the exercise you would’ve gotten doing your own lawn. Neither choice seems logical. Just clean up street side, keep a little green barrier to keep out pests, and give the rest back to nature.
And you may find yourself in a beautiful house
…fake window shutters are f*cking stupid…
I wish the best for those legally compelled by their HOA to maintain a colony of unwanted plants.
Maybe one day sanity will return to their regime and they’ll be able to grow tomatoes and other peasantries like the rest of us.
