Not once did I say “medium or high density housing isn’t the correct solution to a lot of problems.”
I said:
I’m all for condos, but condos or apartments actually working reasonably require that every single person living in them is capable of acting reasonably, and that they are built properly.
Please don’t put words in my mouth just because I wanted to raise a criticism.
I’m just raising the contention that for a major shift from people wanting houses to wanting apartments, apartments should be built such that they are as reasonable to live in as a house, ie, built soundproof.
For public support to shift heavily to medium/high density housing over houses, these kinds of issues having to do with build quality would have to be addressed first.
There is more to do with this than sound proofing as well such as the inability to install sufficient air conditioning in medium/high density housing, even with warming climates, due to condo board or HOA restrictions.
