I guess that's just an argument for better made apartments.

That's really the foundational problem. If you could exist without bugging or being bugged by the neighbors dense housing would be so much more appealing

This is absolutely correct.

I live now in a well-made townhouse. I can't hear the neighbors, ever, even the living room, or the kitchen. Or the bedroom! I love this place compared to my last crappy townhouse, or any apartment I've ever been in, ever.

These threads are full of people making the straight-up weakest arguments for destroying nature...

"...but privacy and noise!"

Ugh, just take all that money you would have spent on the ridiculous driveways, extra lengths of road, utilities, and lawn care and put it into higher quality building materials for the apartments/townhouses.

We build crap quality places in the US and all I hear from my fellow countrymen is "we can't (or don't want to) do it any other way".
