Whither Apartments?
According to naahq.org, 39 millions people in the United States - or 1 in 8 residents - live in an apartment. Data for Portland is a little harder to figure out - this website seems to prefer the term "renters" although that can mean renters of homes too. But assuming it's the same as the country, isn't it time there were a radio show about apartments? Unless there's already been one. In which case, isn't it time there's another radio show about apartments?
Yesterday on the blog I noted I've spent 26 of my 54 years living in apartments (which excluded living in duplexes or rented homes, which would've increased that total by maybe six years) so I know apartments. True, I don't currently live in an apartment, & I would hate to live in one of the horrifying apartments that line the highways in the Dallas/Fort Worth metroplex where I used to live, but I'm not unsympathetic to apartments. I would love to live in an apartment in a major city like New York or Paris! Not that I ever will.
The pros & cons & joys & sorrows of apartments will be explored with music & talk on tonight's Self Help Radio which is on midnight to 3am on 90.7fm in Portland town & online everywhere at kboo.fm. Let's hope you'll listen along.
