Once upon a time, being able to live in a high-rise building was a dream for many people, as it symbolized true city life.
In addition, high-rise residences, especially super high-rise buildings, not only have a wide view, but also provide excellent lighting and ventilation conditions.
However, in recent years, some have chosen to leave their high-rise homes and return to living in old neighborhoods. They are acutely aware that high-rise housing is actually an "illusory dream" and unrealistic.
Lao Liu bought a super high-rise residence in 2020 and lived in it for less than 3 years, and at the beginning of the year, he decided to sell the house and return to live in the multi-storey old community where he once lived.
Speaking of the reason for buying a house, he complained about the inconvenience of living in this kind of super high-rise residence.
1.It is too inconvenient to go up and down the stairs of high-rise residences, and falling down the stairs often occurs.
Lao Liu's building has a total of 33 floors, which belongs to the standard super high-rise, and he lives on the 25th floor, and it takes a long time to wait for the elevator during the rush hour every day, and sometimes it is possible to wait for more than half an hour.
To avoid wasting time, he either avoids rush hour and takes the elevator 20 minutes early, and if the elevator breaks down or needs repairs, he has to take the stairs.
Once, he was in a hurry to go to work, and when he went downstairs, due to walking in a hurry, his heel was not stable, he fell, and the entire surface of his foot was swollen, and he rested for half a month before going out, which was really angry and helpless!
2.The property fees, parking management fees, and garbage removal fees for high-rise residential buildings are much higher.
According to Lao Liu, the property fee of his high-rise community is more than 5 cents higher than that of Yiping in other communities, the parking fee is 200 yuan more per month, and the garbage removal fee is also half higher than that of other communities.
didn't enjoy the convenience brought by high-rise residences, but paid high property fees every day, the more Lao Liu thought about it, the more he felt panicked.
He complained that this was obviously unfair to the residents of the upper floors, because they didn't really enjoy the same service treatment.
Therefore, she resolutely sold her super high-rise residence and moved back to the old community to live, and Lao Liu experienced many benefits:
1.The cost of the old residential area is relatively low, including property fees, parking management fees, garbage removal fees, etc., totaling only 200 yuan, while the cost of high-rise residential buildings is more than 500 yuan. This means that his family can save more than 3,000 yuan a year.
2.The multi-storey house is very convenient to go up and down the stairs. Lao Liu moved to the 3rd floor, and he usually doesn't need to take the elevator, and he doesn't have to worry about commuting, making his work and life more convenient.
3.The supporting facilities around the old community are complete, and they are also cheap. Including wet markets, shopping malls, hospitals, schools, parks and buses, etc., there is no need to worry about high consumption, and there is more room for choice.
Moving into the old community, he seemed to have returned to reality and felt the warmth and tranquility that he had not seen for a long time.
Although the building of the old community is old, its charm lies in its simplicity and intimacy. There is no hustle and bustle of elevators, no noise of corridors, only leisurely steps and warm neighborhoods.
However, high-rise residential buildings are like an island, which isolates us from the outside world, loses the connection between people, and lacks a real living atmosphere.
Therefore, when he returned to the old community, he really found that sense of belonging and happiness.
Of course, turnip greens have their own love, and it cannot be said that high-rise residences have no advantages, but they still have to choose according to the actual situation.
In short, don't be fooled by the appearance of high-rise buildings, don't save face, but make decisions according to your own needs and living habits.
