I've lived in an apartment, house, townhouse...condo...
I actually liked the setup of my townhouse best. Just a small outdoor area-- mostly concrete-- but most of the grounds were taken care of by the HOA. Easier to maintain, but less noisy than the apartment I lived in.
What kind of home do you prefer?
My house out here where I live now 2.3 acres 2100 sq ft. solid like a cave made of 8 inches of concrete all around sound proof quiet at night. Wood stove I installed to keep us warm. I get the occasional deer on my security cameras. Big fenced in yard for my dogs to guard. Old barn/shed converted in to a chicken/duck enclosure. Huge 2 car garage. Huge driveway for kids to play and be safe. There Is an attached apartment. Might make it into an art studio or somethin for solitude in the future.
I like my house and separate pottery studio...fenced yard for the Red the wonderdog to run free.
