Not everyone is "fit" for living in dense cities with shared walls, noisy streets and crowded environs. There's a psychological component to being embedded with many people 24/7 that is under-appreciated here, when people fantasize about the ideal society of walkable cities, proportionally-sized dwellings, and density. The latter is for the single, the young and the adventurous. The old cranks like me grow out of it and long for a few thousand feet without noisy student neighbors playing music in the middle of the night or having parties.

At this stage of the game I'm ready for the 2500 sf house.
