Thank you, that was pretty informative. > They don't like having to run long water pipes to the houses, but the costs of those water pipes is minimal over time, they last 100 years. It's just not an expensive enough problem to worry about. My reading of their materials was that according to them the pipes last 30 years and taxes from the entire county are not enough to cover for that, but I have no way to falsify that claim. Anyway, in my corner of the world people have been moving to the suburbs as well, but the reason is that the same credit score allows one to get approximately twice the living space in the suburbs, which sounds like a lot until it's mentioned that we're talking about 112m2 or 1200sq ft houses. I mean no disrespect by this, but I get the feeling that they're catering to a specific demographic and I'm not in it.
