  1. I don't ever want to live higher that a firetruck ladder extends (maybe five floors?) and I'd prefer something more like the second floor. With the second floor you're above street level but still low enough that escape in an emergency is do-able even if you have to use the window.

  2. The New York apartment for me doesn't actually exist: I want the apartment that Rosemary and Guy moved into in the movie "Rosemary's Baby". Cash, I live in Bloomington, Indiana, which Habitat for Humanity found, at that time anyway, to be the least affordable city in the United States because people were paying half of their income for housing. I'm amazed at the apartment buildings that keep being built here, luxury apartments for college students. There's a zoning rule that some or all of these new buildings have to have commercial space on the ground floors. Some of those business spaces I pass by have been empty since the buildings opened and probably will stay that way. Indiana University is huge and right in the center of town and hires many people but those people can't afford to live in town or have to live far from their workplace. Even before Covid and the university going online for much of the year I was wondering how much longer expensive student housing can keep being built before there are too many apartments. We may be at that point now because of the virus situation.
