Sociological inquiry. If you were raised in an apartment at some points but not at others answer the one you spent most time in.

As for me, I have lived in apartments all my life.

I lived in an apartment for about half my childhood (shortly after turning 8 to shortly before turning 16). Voted for option 1.

Yes, I've lived in an apartment since my birth in 1996 which includes 4 years of undergrad in a dorm.

Brought up in a House. Lived in a dorm or apartment during my 5 years of college, moved back with my parents for two years and change, and then moved to my current apartment in December 2021.

I lived in a house all my childhood until 2017, when I began living more in dorm/apartment type settings. Then I lived in houses again from 2020 until early 2023. I now live in an apartment. Maybe I will live in a house again some time in the next few years?

Lived in one for two years when I was 16-18.

Since 18 I've lived in a townhouse of sorts, before 16 I lived in free-standing houses.

No,

But I live in an apartment now, and I always wonder what it would be like as a child. 50m from my front door is a traffic nightmare for children and a river with sharks in it.

I would not have survived for 6 months living here as I was running around the neighbourhood like a mad man.

I didn't live in an apartment until I was in college, then I moved in to an apartment with my then-fiancee, then moved back into my parents' house after my engagement ended.

No. My family briefly lived in an apartment when I was too young to remember, but I grew up in a single-family detached house. I do live in an apartment now though.

Before I was 12, yes (New York City). Afterwards, no (Midwest). Voted 'yes' since 'brought up' feels like it's discussing childhood to me but it depends where you draw the cutoff.

Not primarily, but our custody-sharing agreement meant I spent a lot of weekends in a bachelor-pad apartment.

My parents moved to a house just after my first birthday, so I don't remember living in an apartment as a kid.  I voted no.  I did live in a dorm in college and have lived in an apartment after college, though.

raised in a house

As an adult:
6 months in '94 in Atlanta
6 months in '95 in Panama City
2 years, 99-01 in Omaha (2 different apts...the first one was my favorite.  2bdr, but the master bedroom was large and the living room was huge, and it was only $450/mth.  Great place for a single fella.)

Damn.
I don't remember the details, but after the separation (didn't get officially divorced until I was out of the AF) they made me move out of housing, but let me move off base.  I have a vague memory that maybe they didn't have enough dorms on base, so single E-4s and above could live like a normal human.  I did have my son a lot too, so maybe that played a role.  I don't remember, I know it was never a concern of mine.

No, but fun fact: the day that my parents moved from their apartment to their house was the day they found out they were pregnant with me.

The house I live in currently is the only home I have ever known or had throughout my life.
