I’m literally surrounded by these shops, as is anyone in any town that doesn’t depend on suburbia. It’s *wonderful* and the prices are good.

I’m eating a whole dinner for about $10 tonight, out. Easily like 1300 calories of very delicious food.

In the PNW.





You're "literally surrounded" by cafes built into the first floor of your apartment complex? Because that's what I was very clearly talking about. Not shops within walking distance.

(I didn't ask and don't care if you think your cheap meal's "very delicious," by the way. That's not the main indicator of quality. Many Americans would call a Big Mac "very delicious.")


Well, let’s see, in this building - an apartment complex, there’s:

  * a coffee shop (that just closed)
  * a desert shop
  * a fine dining shop (that is open rarely
The apartment building next door has:

  * a ramen shop
  * a high-end burger shop
  * a high-end barber shop
The apartment one apartment away has:

  * a nail salon
  * a hawaiian food shop
So, yes.

Where do you live that this is so bizarre? Multi story buildings with retail space on the bottom and residential space at the top are very common in cities.

What’s the point of this? This is just needlessly rude.
