America

[MrMister]

Whats it like living in America ?

Is it true that every thing is larger than life there ?

[redcrx]

america is a huge place and housing, like here, will vary considerably.

House prices over there also seem to drop with the age of the property, especially when its a wood frame building.

You cannot get any true idea of what it is like there until you visit the are that you are interested in.

[MrMister]

Is USA more relaxed then lifstyle in UK ?

(as http://www.usa-vs-uk.com/houses.html says)

mrmister, do you really think that people can answer such a question with an answer that would encompass everyone in the USA?

[pastafreak]

I grew up in the US but have lived here for 22 years. It really impossible to compare. As individuals Americans may be more 'relaxed' but as for the country as a whole...they can be uptight,narrow minded and incredibly isolated.
Just like here.
