There isnt enough land on the planet for everyone to own a house. And why even stop at a house. Everyone should owm multiple acres and homestead.
That’s not even close to true, and yes everyone should own an acre of land
Yes lets bulldoze all of nature so everyone can own a house. And yes it is true.
An apartment is a box in the sky, really just a big room.
You realize that not every apartment is a studio in a skyscraper, right?
and then some asshole rents the unit next to you and starts having parties, getting his junkie friends visiting all the time
How is this different from an asshole moving into the house next door?
A house is a house. Everyone should have a house.
Houses are fine. The big problem with them is that most are in a boring sprawling soulless suburbia. The most important thing about where you live isn’t the physical structure itself but location, location, location.

What a silly question. You don’t share walls, hallways, mailboxes, front doors, laundry machines, and parking lots with your neighbors when you live in a house. Honestly, have you ever even lived in an apartment?
I’ve literally never had a problem sharing hallways, mailboxes, front doors, laundry machines and parking lots with people.
The only problem you tend to have with neighbors is noise. And you can easily get that in suburbia as well, particularly if they’re throwing noisy late night parties.
