Also, state housing normally means they have the house to themselves. I’m not in a state house or owning, I’m stuck in a crowded boarding house with 10 other people. The group that I’m in always has the lowest satisfaction, I’ll bet. Everyone is complaining about each other constantly, that’s also how we make friends, by bitching constantly about “the indians” who never stop talking loudly, and complaining about the Chinese landlord ripping us off. I’d rather have a stable house that I don’t share with others, like an apartment. NZ lives in the past. Can’t believe we don’t have apartments in the suburbs of christchurch yet…
It’s amazing that people find this surprising at all, who’d have thought having a stable roof over your head would make you happier?
