I believe apartments are generally bad for human health mentally…

But this former 1950s era drive in overnight building structure in Joplin might be a better compromise for people like students, the retired, single people, etc.

You have your own place…your own grass…prob split out to be mowed…your own escape from people above/below/around you as in an apartment…enough room to have your stuff…own parking place…you can also easily sublet off utilities for construction…have a crew on sight for specific things at a time, use common materials…

Plus you have much lower costs to buy if that is the model. You could prob build those for $50k tops. It’s basically Eden Village here but with a more historical background.

Let’s just say it was $60k to build. Even in todays wild rate environment that’s a $450 a month payment. That’s pretty fair. You could fit 3-4 of these on the average city lot. This could a game changer from not just finding a good reason to get rid of way past their prime rentals but also putting healthy density back into urban centers and not encouraging sprawl.
