Perhaps it could suggest that they are not in the position to afford a larger living space for two growing kids due to their finances. The apartment is lovely from the pictures but I couldn't imagine living in such a small space with two children because there are limited spaces for privacy and quiet time.

They have a roof over their head, they have electricity, and I am guessing running water and food in that very nice stainless steel fridge. There is nothing poor about that scenario. Owning a home is not a requirement for health or happiness.

No. I live in a condo with another friend because both of us are single and it's convenient for us. Plus we work in the city where there are not many terraced houses around. It doesn't determine whether you are poor or rich.

No, it's not easy to get a house and costs a fair bit of money at the start (down payment etc) and it's hard to save that money. One has to really commit and work towards it and stick to budgets. And some people just simple prefer and apartment so they aren't responsible for maintenance etc.

No. You could live in an apartment and still have shit loads of dosh in the bank

[teawrecks]

Nope. Like a billboard I pass on the way to work says

"If you can afford to rent, you can afford to own."

So they can afford to own a house, they're just choosing to go the apartment route at the time being.

It depends where the apartment is, in most major cities apartments are expensive.

[teatea111]

There's a lot of really expensive apartments for rent in my area so apartments doesn't necessarily mean one is poor

[Jxpxtxr]

Lol there's apartments in every bigger city that sell for 2-3 mil € so nope, it doesn't actually say anything about a persons wealth.

[Lyndsielee666]

Who's the idiot that answered yes to this lmfao. Apartments in Orange County are thousands of dollars a month. That's not poor now is it

[Xfitchick]

A lot of people like an apartment because they don't want to spend too much time on maintenance

[nachosaresexy]

No, it means if major stuff breaks you don't have to fix it.

[akadatank44]

No. They just don't want to deal with the upkeep of a home. Which is a lot. Especially when the weather affects it

[Anonymous]

No it just means tgey don't want all the hassle of being a home owner and I think that's perfectly fine even if it is financial ill-advised

[Fortheholidays]

there are people that live on the street... depends what you define as poor i guess

[Anonymous]

if you can afford living in an appartment you aren't poor

[BellePepper]

Noooo it just means you live in an apartment.
