Houses in America are generally called "Stick Built"... This just means that they are wood built houses. I would say that 70 - 80 percent of all homes in America are built this way. Some have bricks. Some have concrete walls but MOST... MOST are just basic wood built homes. This is okay but if there is a fire they are usually 100% loss. If the neighbor has a fire, chances are that yours will be lost as well. Also the windows and the doors in Europe are SOOOOOO much better, stronger, nicer, secure than the ones in America. I think American built homes are 100% better when it comes to "Attention to detail" but the material in Europe are better. So we dont have gaps, or caulking mistakes or screws sticking out or things like that... But our houses are much cheaper to build and the profit margin in incredible... BLEH!!!
Anyway... Just sharing some thoughts. =)
