What is Low-density Housing?
Low-Density Housing can be described as housing with a particularly low number of housing units on any residential block or if otherwise stated it can be described as the less number of families per amount of a given space in housing space. Here a sense of non-intrusiveness and spaciousness are the main key elements that define the motto of the project. The rising demand for low-density homes is mainly due to the desire of prospective buyers to find a balance between a metropolitan city and a very small town as it directly means less crowding, fewer automobiles, more space, and a clean healthier surrounding. The spread of covid-19 is yet another reason why people are seeking to settle in low-density residencies.
What are the problems associated with high-density housing?
It is almost impossible to find solace amidst the rush in the daily life of the metropolitan city. Overcrowding, lack of housing spaces, and rapid urbanization have led to an obstruction to privacy and personal space. This is one of the reasons why people try finding an escape from the rush once in a while in the form of weekend getaways. Also, as we have seen during the outbreak of pandemic initially that in high-density areas the spread of the virus was more prevalent as a result of which soon after the pandemic there has been a rise in demand for the low-density housings.
Since due to rapid growth and urbanization the cities are getting denser and crowded people are shifting towards low-density residences for a more spacious and peaceful living. The upcoming projects in Chandigarh and upcoming projects in Mohali are going to offer just that, which means that with low-density housing there will be a greater share of amenities and more open spaces per resident.
