I lived in a townhouse style premises. The only reason I did not want to move out from my apartment was that it is very close to where I work, just one mile to the campus. But this place crawls with mainly testesteron poisoned undergrads --noisy parties at every weekend. I had to put up with non-uniformyl heated/cooled rooms. Electricity is a nightmare, have to save your data often before you may loose it due to electric mischief. Oh also, be ready to hear lust related sounds in nights, i.e., poor insulation. Glad that I no longer feel too lazy to move out.
