[quote=Anonymous]It’s the house size. I live in an 1800 sq ft house and even if we didn’t have kids and dogs, “pristine” is impossible when all of your daily traffic is compressed into a smaller space. We don’t wear shoes indoors, but our floors wear faster and our 2 bathrooms get dirty faster because everyone needs to do the same stuff as my friends and neighbors in houses twice the size but it’s constrained to less rooms and narrower paths. This became really obvious during the pandemic. Having two extra people at home accelerated wear-and-tear and maintenance. Most people also have the same amount of basic stuff- rain jackets, dirty cleats, backpacks, work bags, lunchboxes- so if you less storage or fewer places to hide it away, it has to turn into visible clutter. Like PP above, we don’t have a garage. Or an attic. Or a basement. I would love to have just one so I could hide some stuff![/quote]
