Except for the fact that you get to be at the center of restaurants, bars, entertainment complexes, shopping malls, literally everything, apartments are easier to maintain too. When the lawn looks a little rugged, it's not your concern and no more worrying about leakages; even if it's 3 am just pick up the phone and call the emergency maintenance services. What more is the time spent in cleaning will be less because of the low square footage, that alone should be an enough reason for you to move into an apartment today!
