Future Of Living "House or Apartment"

 

Which is a more suitable option to live in a house or an apartment? The debate on this subject has been going on for an extensive period. No doubt, in Pakistan people, have always preferred living in houses. Where they are their own bosses and handle their maintenance problems; design their own homes. It was a myth that houses were more settled investments; apartments were considered a temporary way of living. However, times are changing; an enormous shift in economic and living conditions all over the world has compelled people in Pakistan to reconsider the idea they have been idealizing for ages.

A checklist of some striking whys and wherefores jotted down below:


 A changing trend in big cities of the country:

Even so, Karachi has always been the pioneer; flag bearer of apartment living but, the idea has been prevailing now in other big cities like Lahore and Islamabad. From the affordability point of view, the land could be a bit pricey for Karachites. Therefore, apartments have always been their choice of residence for many years. Besides, the same wave of living style has now seen in other cities because of new innovative constructions taking place in especially prime locations of Lahore and Islamabad. Some major establishments are underway in areas of these cities which, are known for their whereabouts, accessibility, views but mainly because of their futuristic architectural designs. Thus, people now prefer to save themselves from the hassle of engaging in complicated house building episodes and settle for a better deal which, is affordable and comforting and also gives the feel of a superior lifestyle.

Affordable living space:

Pakistan is the world’s 6th most populous country. A large population of people living in rural areas is migrating towards cosmopolitan cities for better work options and a better lifestyle. Therefore, affordable living spaces are becoming scarce due to overpopulation. Apartments solve this dilemma by providing improved living spaces, not only well-designed and spacious but also economical. Maintenance worries and expenditures such as security, water storage and garbage disposal, power-stand-by are taken care of without any fuss. In addition to that, there are quite a few means through which apartments can be a money-saving option.

Better Security:

In recent times, security is a crucial necessity demanded by people. It is one of the main reasons why Pakistanis are putting in their good faith in apartment living because the buildings are more secured, mostly equipped with CCTV surveillance cameras and security guards are on high alert with day and night shifts.

Attractive Building Designs:

Although all apartment building designs sent a wave of sameness in their layouts-new architectural buildings have put the audience in awe that opts to choose the lifestyle of modernized yet secure living. Modern era developers now design apartments in smart and constructive ways that contribute to a lifestyle pleasing to a new generation.

 

Amenities Nearby:

It is certainly not possible for everyone to afford some luxuries on their own when they live in a house-luxuries like swimming pools, gym, children daycare center, lake view, stand-by power generators, elevators, high-tech security are a few of the many perks associated with apartment living. You get access to all of these amenities, with schools, parks, educational institutes designed to facilitate the residents of an apartment building.

Changed Traditions:

Over time, traditions change, evolve, or get extinct. Similarly, customs in Pakistan are changing; people prefer their freedom, independence in the approach of their daily chores. Therefore, they favor the idea of living in compact and fully equipped places that fulfills their needs and require less time for jogging up from one room to another and help them accomplish their tasks. Like you can binge on your favorite TV show while cooking and keep an eye on the children playing in another room as an apartment made to help you multitask.

 

 

 Nuclear Family System:

The extended family setting has become oblivious in Pakistan and replaced by the nuclear family system. Instead of buying or renting big houses, small families prefer to live in apartments, which are more suitable for their lifestyle.  A nuclear family usually comprises 4 to 5 family members where both parents are employed and have to leave their children alone; unlike a joint family setting where there are grandparents to take care of the kids, therefore apartments are a more secure option for such families.

Amenable Neighborhood:

A man is a social animal and would love to socialize with a friendly neighborhood. A good neighbor can be a helpful support system regarding any family shortcomings.  The apartment community is a mix of different cultures which, serves as a greater chance for you to explore and make connections at a greater level that is certainly not the case when you live in a bungalow. You get to meet people of your interests, attend community meetings, socialize in a cricket match screening, vice versa. So, if you are into a start-up, you can get plenty of help by promoting through your neighbor community.

Although there are many other benefits associated with apartment living, out of which we explored a few here to paint a concise picture that apartment living is not new but still trending in Pakistan. However, it is always one's choice to go for what is best suited for their needs.
