Many people think living in high-rise apartment blocks makes people feel lonely and unhappy, while others argue it has advantages. Discuss both views and give your own opinion. Give reasons for your answer and include any relevant examples from your experience.

The number of high rise buildings has grown many-fold in the past few years. This essay shall discuss the advantages and disadvantages of high-rise apartments’

There are many advantages of living in high-rise apartment buildings. The main advantage is that everything that you need is just a stone’s throw away. This is because high-rise apartments or condominiums tend to be either very close to or right in the middle of downtown. Some apartment buildings may be located near beautiful, natural surroundings such as parks, gardens, and white-sand beaches. A person can relax and escape from the stresses and hassles of city living by going up the top floor and marvel at the cityscape with the wonderful perspective of everything around you.



Furthermore, there are shared amenities in the building such as swimming pools, recreation centers and gyms which one can enjoy. You can actually socialize with the other families, get to know them, and create a better sense of community also. When neighbors get to know one another, they tend to look out for one another, and this generates a greater sense of safety and security, and this only adds to the advantages of high-rise living.

Along with certain living advantages, there are also plenty of disadvantages of such sky-scrapers. When it comes to high rises, the balcony is a possible safety hazard because of a growing number of fatalities associated with suicide and accidental falls. What is more, high-rise fires are the worst nightmare for people living in tall apartment buildings because of the cramped conditions when doing an evacuation out of one’s apartment space. Another issue about high-rise apartment buildings is the fact that everything is compact and you don’t have a lawn and a spacious yard where you can play with your kids. Finally, there are many people living in such buildings and so residents do not question the presence of strangers. Therefore, security can be a big problem.

To sum up, there are both advantages and disadvantages of high rise apartments. However, feeling lonely is not one of them. Whether to live or not to live in a high-rise apartment is a matter of personal choice.

MY VIEW

The essay asks about the feelings of one being happy and lonely while living in apartments, I don't think briefing about the safety standards,hazar ds,accidental falls would not justify and its completely irrelevant. please correct me if I'm wrong.

Correct, though the writing is of a fairly high standard the writer made the basic error of not addressing the prompt.. "discuss both views" with one view being "iving in high-rise apartment blocks makes people feel lonely and unhappy"
