[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My house is probably the same square footage but it’s a tall skinny townhouse with no yard versus a single story house on a quarter acre. It’s impossible to compare but I think we did ok. Eventually I would love a yard but I'm happy with this is my 30s. [/quote]
I went from a townhouse to a SFH with a small yard last year (a pandemic purchase so we would have outdoors space for our kids). I have to say, so far with toddlers, the yard is overrated. It's just something to mow and weed. Still, I love the house and deck and patio, so I'm happy overall, but I could do without so much yard.[/quote]

For us: A nearby park >>> big lawn. We got a row house with a big deck and patio near a park. We did a yard once, never again.[/quote]

People get oversold on the big yard thing until they realize it’s more work on the adults than it is for the kids to play. They will go to their friends house or stay inside, not play out in the backyard. You’ll use that yard a few times a year. No thanks. [/quote]

I hate grass and backyards. My backyard is all deck. My kids never cared. They prefer parks with other kids always.[/quote]
