Have a chat with people living in Singapore, Taipei, London, Frankfurt, New York - many of them are quite happy about living in an apartment building. And many of them stay there basically all their life (not because they have to, but because they want to). One quality measure could be how often people move around ... many of the apartment dwellers in first world countries stay for many years at the same place, while many people in NZ just keep moving around and regularly exchanging their often cold, moist and draughty wooden boxes every other year against another cold, moist and draughty wooden box. Only people winning in this game are real estate agents.
Are you a real estate agent - westerly?
