I'm in Bangalore and live with my wife. Compared to what our parents, we always complain about how small our living space is. They have lived their lives in small towns/villages in houses with nice large rooms and huge backyards, all of which is only a pipe dream for us now in our 21st storey pigeon-hole.
I always assumed European countries with their lower population densities would be inclined towards larger living spaces than us. Seems like that may not be generally true.
- jobigoud 9y agoI had to go look up average apartment size in Bangalore to make sure you had the correct number. 130m² is a pretty large apartment size in Europe. We live in 70m² and find it decently sized. And I work remotely so I'm in it all day long. We pay 800€/month, it would be much higher if we were closer to a city center. We have a bedroom and a study, even two small bathrooms. It does have a backyard that is not counted I in the size. Most people I know live in similarly sized apartments.
