Why do you assume Japan is the same as Europe?
- qwerty456127 2y agoIn regard to housing - I assume it's approximately the same all over the world.
- simondotau 2y agoThat’s an unrealistic assumption. It wasn’t even the same in your own part of the world fifty years ago.
- OrigamiPastrami 2y agoYou might want to challenge your assumptions and learn something in the process. https://www.nytimes.com/2023/09/11/opinion/editorials/tokyo-housing.html https://www.nytimes.com/2023/09/11/opinion/editorials/tokyo-...

- vsnf 2y agoYou should reevaluate this assumption. Japan is a famous, well known, and well studied counter example.
- nindalf 2y agoYou don’t learn by talking, you learn by listening. And you’re talking too much about Japan for someone who knew nothing about the place and extrapolated that it must be like Europe.
- qwerty456127 2y agoWho would tell me anything to listen about housing in Japan if didn't say anything about it? I never ever heard about housing being more affordable in Japan than in the rest of the world until today. Now I learnt something and feel happy and grateful about this. By the way I still doubt it's so affordable there that I myself would consider it affordable. I would after hearing the majority of people who are homeless or live with their parents saying they seriously just prefer living this way. I consider Japan to be a great example other countries should learn from in a number of ways though.
