Description

An apartment is a set of rooms designed for living in, usually located in a building with multiple similar units. Apartments are typically rented rather than owned and can vary in size from a small studio to a multi-bedroom unit.

Apartments are residential units within a building designed to house multiple families or individuals.
The concept dates back to ancient Rome, where multi-story buildings called "insulae" housed many people.
During the Industrial Revolution, urbanization increased the demand for apartment living in cities.
In the 19th and 20th centuries, apartments became common worldwide as cities grew rapidly.
Modern apartments vary from affordable housing to luxury high-rises with many amenities.
They offer convenient living spaces for people in crowded urban areas.
Today, apartments continue to evolve with new designs focusing on sustainability and community living.
