Which is more of a discussion regarding councils regs allowing tiny subdivisions to be put in place. 300sqm blocks (and much less) out in the sticks is impractical, focused on $$$ squeezing than planning or functionality. If people want to build Mc Mansions, I don't have an issue with this as...

And unsurprisingly in Europe only 23% of households have a pet, compared to 63% in Australia. Bit hard having a Collie x Kelpie, or any reasonable size dog in an apartment - let alone the ethical considerations. Cats and the like can obviously be accommodated much easier. As I said earlier, if...

What was absolutist about this? Sorry that car enthusiasts are relegated to dropping out springs, or putting some tape around their wires of small-med cars. ;) BTW, I'm still waiting for the explanation of what 2/3's of Australians are meant to do with their pets, if we *should* move to...

And if you go to my first post about how a large % of the population have a reason to want/require/need a suburban house. Car enthusiasts are just one of a plethora of reasons. The total of all these hobbies represent a large % of the population without a doubt. We can't all be latte sipping...

Lies. :) Do you have 3+ cars, or do restorations? A lot of the car related hobbies can be quite spatially intensive - this is what I'm getting at. Anyone who bangs on saying that medium/high density living can suit most people is really failing to understand how Australian culture and it's...

I really don't understand the need for extensive medium/high density living in one of the most sparsely populated countries on earth.

You should spruik OTP apartments. Not matter how well designed, an apartment cannot sufficiently provide for a lot of lifestyles, particularly ones which a large number of Australians live. The apartments I looked after were <5-6 years old, 70-100sqm, 3 bed/2 bath, private gated parking...

House with 800sqm for me thanks. Enough space to have few limitations, but within a manageable size. Character for bonus points (which would no doubt have/require an extension, so land size provides enough space). I've lived in 2 bedders, 3 bedders on 500sqm, 4 bedders on 800sqm, 1800's farm...
