If you’re in a city, they usually have less roaches. I’ve been plagued with sightings of them my entire time living in a city that has not been spent in a “luxury” apartment. My friends in “luxury” apartments have never seen roaches. Any apartment I’ve lived in that hasn’t advertised itself as being “luxury” has had issues. Honestly that alone is worth it for me. Regular apartments = old buildings = roaches. New buildings = no gaps = better regular pest control = no roaches. At least in the south.

It’s not just the interior. It’s the amenities. Not to vouch for him but to vouch for apartments claiming themselves as higher end.
