These days, a video of an American woman is becoming increasingly viral on social media, in which she has described such a shocking difference between the homes of India and America that every Indian’s chest will swell with pride. The woman has shared some very interesting and ground-breaking differences related to construction materials and everyday comforts while comparing the apartment culture and living styles in both the countries.
‘Indian apartments offer amazing peace and privacy’
While sharing the video, the American woman said that the biggest and best thing she felt while living in India was the peace and privacy found there. He said that most of the apartments and high-rise buildings in India are made of strong concrete. This concrete is several inches thick, making it almost impossible for neighbors’ noise to travel from one house to another. Due to thick concrete walls and strong floors, sound pollution coming and going between houses is completely stopped. This is the reason that despite living in densely populated apartments in India, people can enjoy a very calm and relaxing environment inside.
The woman got a big shock as soon as she returned to America
Sharing her experience of returning to her country, the woman said, “When I came back to America a few months ago, I had forgotten the system here. The experience of living in an apartment in America is very scary and different in terms of sound. In America, we make our apartments with very weak and light materials instead of concrete, which gave me a big shock.” The woman told that now the situation is such that she wakes up early in the morning by the sound of her neighbors’ conversations and footsteps.
Why are American houses hollow and weak?
The problem is not limited to the noise of the neighbours, according to the woman, even when she is inside the house, the noise from the road outside is clearly heard. Actually, there is a big technical reason behind this. Most low- and medium-rise apartment complexes in the United States are built with wood framing and extremely lightweight materials rather than concrete. This method of construction is very fast and cheap, due to which the builders and developers there can easily meet the demand of houses at low cost, but sound insulation and privacy is completely lost in it.
Woman gives this special advice to those buying a house in America
At the end of the video, the woman has given a very useful advice to those people who are thinking of shifting to America or buying an apartment there in the future. The woman said, “If you are planning to live in an apartment in America, please be mentally prepared in advance that you may miss peace there. I am just giving you an important information.” This viral video has made it clear that a house is not just about its big size or luxury facilities, but the materials used in making it decide your daily life, health and mental peace.
