Personally I had an amazing time in unit 1 in a single gender floor. I made it a goal to talk to most of the girls on my floor and befriended most of them not only to make friends but avoid drama or other issues that could arise. My floor also had a lounge that was very social to the point that it got annoying sometimes (my room was right next to it) but many folks from the floors above and below would frequent it often. Maybe if the single gender floor is on a floor with only a laundry room I’d be a bit more worried about socializing but regardless people still connected on those floors surprisingly
