Ground floor apartment here. Winter is hell, the storage area in the basement below us is unheated, so the apartment feels like Siberia. Summer is glorious though, nice and cool even in the middle of the most brutal heatwave.

Except for when the people below you are ancient and run the heater in the SUMMER…

Same. We live between two floors. Heat rarely is put on, because stove, fridge and dishwasher are enough to supplement what the sandwiched apartments floors already provide

Yea for real. I live on the middle-ish levels (10-17th floors) and never use the heat. Winter time, my apartment gets heat from the lower areas and sun is hitting my windows from sun rise to sun down, so I actually have to turn on the A/C in the winter cause it’ll get to 75-78. Summer time, the sun is higher up in the sky so it doesn’t shine directly into the apartment so the A/C gets a break.

That all said, fucking Spring and Fall are a bitch cause the sun is shining directly into my eyes, so I gotta shift around during the day and I gotta adjust the A/C like every hour, cause I’m too hot or too cold
