What I found incredibly uncomfortable when moving from Eastern to Western Europe is a lack of shade in residential areas. Yes, there’re parks, but the buildings often don’t have enough shade (anecdotal evidence). With the rising temperatures, many homes are exposed to sun whole day. I live in a city that’s been growing really fast and none of the newer residential houses have any trees around them. Mind you it takes many many years to grow a proper tree.



Don't worry, newer developments in eastern europe suck at tree coverage too.


Newer Western European developments tend to focus a lot on trees again in my experience. So there’s hope.


Yes, I live in a new apartment in Munich and when I look out of the window, I feel like I'm in nature. Really nice.
