As a home owner, I have a number of theories about why someone would burn down their own property. Obviously the archaeological record would not provide evidence of the Cucuteni-Trypillia standing a short distance away, cackling with wild glee as the flames danced in their eyes.
- eastbound 3y agoEspecially in the US, but also in Europe, neighborhoods are fashionable / modern / developing for 30 years, then they are left to rot by developers until they are a bit rundown, then the city (=the developers with connections at the town hall) decide to refurbish the neighborhood, at which point they are bought wholesale and rebuilt. Aren’t we rebuilding most houses every 60 years in Europe and USA?
- beebeepka 3y agoNever heard of this. Then again, "Europe" can mean a 1000 completely different things depending on who you ask. At least around here in Bulgaria, there is no such thing as developers building entire neighborhoods as seen in the US movies.
- smoyer 3y agoMy house here in the US is over 100 years old. We just put a new roof on it which will give it another 50 years. Except for water ingress a wood structure will last a surprisingly long time.
