However, it can not be denied that you'd probably imagine the living conditions are filthy, dirty, crowded, crowded, and not a location that would make a desirable place to live. Negative perception as it is already very common and it makes a lot of people are getting lazy to stay in the flat. However, do not misunderstand, though not a few towers that could be considered as slum dwellings, flats are still many who remain eligible for occupancy.

Definition Flats

The apartment itself is actually a purpose built facility to provide convenience for the community shelter. Such towers are usually built in large cities are densely populated, but the minimum area of ​​land as a residence. For example, DKI Jakarta, the province of the 'narrow', but had a number of people very much. The lack of land due to the overcrowding could lead to skyrocketing land prices and house prices. For those who have enough money, it may not matter. However, what about those who can not afford to buy land at exorbitant prices? For this reason, the towers were created, a multi-storey dwelling constructed to minimize the use of land in large quantities and of course the price is set quite low.

What is the Difference Flats and Apartments ?

Broadly speaking, flats and apartments definition does not make any difference. Both are residential facilities and apartment towers are also included in the category. However, the term flats and apartments have different connotations and this is due to the price, as well as additional facilities. As already known, the price of one unit at a relatively affordable flats. However, there is also the price is quite high with the appearance of the house is very nice and looks classy. Not only that, a myriad of facilities, such as security of or pool is also provided. Towers like these that ultimately touted as apartments.

Positive Impact Development Flats

Flats was built with the aim to provide convenience. So, of course, quite a lot of positive effects caused by the presence of the towers. Here are a few examples of the positive impact of the construction of towers.

1. Keeping the Family Economy

Provide habitable dwellings at affordable prices has become the main development background towers. It is also stated in the Constitution of the Republic of Indonesia No.20 of 2011, which discusses the towers. Quoting from Article 3 states that the organization aims to achieve flats flats livable and affordable. From here, we can conclude that the flat is a facility or facilities that are aimed at a positive for the community. It will also impact on the economic situation of a family. They do not need to spend too much money to buy a place to stay because they can buy flats habitable and relatively inexpensive.

2. Reducing Slums

It is undeniable that in the big cities of slums is often found, especially in the densely populated major cities, such as Jakarta. Slums would not be a proper shelter to live. With the construction of the towers, the existence of slums can be reduced or eliminated altogether. It is also stated in Republic Act no.20 of 2011. In Article 3 states that the purpose of construction of flats including to reduce the extent and prevent the housing and slums. Without slums, a city will look more clean.

3. City Looks The Magnificent

Just imagine if we were the new village set foot into the city, what makes us fascinated with the big city? One of the things that would make us fascinated with the city are the buildings or high-rise buildings. Buildings like this helps improve the image or the image of a city into a magnificent and modern look. Splendor and beauty like this is one person's comfort factor while living in the city, both natives of the city and visitors. Flats or apartments have participated in the city add to the splendor. Lives depend on the occupants of the flat to manage or maintain their homes, to keep them clean and beautiful.

4. Center Crowd

Flats must be occupied by more than one family. Construction of towers at various points of the city would make these areas become increasingly crowded by the population. It will also lead to the construction of other facilities, such as shopping centers, hospitals, parks, and other facilities.

5. Improve Socialism

One feature of the city that can not be avoided is the lack of socialism among neighbors. With the construction of flats, some families will live together in such close distances. Whoever he is, would not want to interact with others. And it will add a sense of socialism and close family in the community, though small in scope.

Negative Impact Development Flats

Construction of the towers was intended for the public good, especially for those who want to live in big cities are densely populated. However, it does not mean flats are always a positive impact. There are also bad things that can appear and most of it occurs on the users of towers or occupants. The following are some examples of the negative impact of construction of flats.

1. Culture shock (culture shock)

In Indonesia, most of the people are living in a single family home. A private house that is really private, no buildings, courtyards, and other things are very personal nature or belonging to the family itself. Even though neighbors with many people, remains clearly visible boundaries between families with each other. On the flats, a new occupant may be feeling shocked because each family living so close together, almost always meet, and mingle with other residents whose numbers could be dozens or hundreds of people. For those who are easily adaptable, certainly not a problem. However, for people who are hard to overcome the shock of cultural differences such as these, can make a person more stress.

2. Increased Sense of Stress / Depression

Stress is not only due to cultural shock. There are quite a lot of things that can increase a person's sense of depression when living in flats. Because of flats inhabited by so many people, of course we as residents of the towers have to deal with all kinds of people with each character. However, it is stress that is common when we live in a society. In addition, stress is also triggered by a sense of living conditions. Built luxury flats (apartments) would make a person feel comfortable. How about a very cheap flats? Usually the condition is relatively narrow dwelling place, stuffy, and eventually turned into a dirty or grungy. Things like this certainly trigger a sense of stress for its inhabitants.

3. Social Gaps

Even with the same definition, someone who lives in the apartment must be regarded as capable in terms of material. What about those who live in flats which always has a worse connotation ? Undeniable, the residents of the apartment is usually regarded as the lower classes who could not afford to buy land or a house, and this assumption can not be avoided.

Worse, assessment 'can not afford' not only comes from the general public, even from family or close ones. Things like that that will lead to social inequality. That is some negative impact that may be felt by the residents. However, of course it can still be overcome, so stay in the towers no longer something that is considered bad and not fun.

Apartment, condo, or Flats ?

You work in the big cities and confused in choosing a place to stay ? Whether choosing flats or apartments ? So, what's the difference with condominium apartments. Let's consider the following explanation.

Reasons for Choosing Apartment

The apartment is a building block that part of it was given the barriers to be a certain amount of space, which is leased or sold with strata title system. Strata title is the ownership of an apartment, but not the land rights associated with the land in which there is common ownership rights over the so-called joint parts, ground joint, shared objects. Condominium is ownership of a property or building by a few people or a large number of people. Differences condos and apartments only on terms alone, more condos to apartments while the legal terms to physical terms.

It could be said that the apartment is the most appropriate housing for young people productive and always moving fast, because it does not require special care because the space is not so broad. Needs quick access to a variety of base camp was the reason for choosing an apartment, because of its strategic location inside the city. Advantages of staying in an apartment for a young couple is easy to set the time for the family. The scope of small dwellings do not require much attention. Thus, attention can be focused on children, for example. Meanwhile, the parents can live in the suburbs, or anywhere else that is relatively quiet and the population is not dense so that parents can enjoy with the rest more comfortably.

But the reality is happening in Indonesia reversed. The young people who are still productive and have high mobility mostly residing far from the location of the center of activity. They live in the suburbs. In fact, by living in the suburbs while the day-to-day activities in the city can cause a variety of waste, including:
  1. waste of time
  2. waste costs
  3. environmental waste (active pollute the environment, particularly roads)
  4. social waste (only a little time for the community)

In line with that, the apartment is home to the well-established that a large income. This is a result of the developer who made the luxurious residential apartments, exclusive, and only to a limited circle, so that young people are not interested in staying there. In fact, you should stay in the well established suburb that is not crowded because they no longer need a high mobility. Finally, developers become accustomed to fix the selling price of apartments that can only be reached by the upper class only.

The absence of a systematic concept of city planning that can control the distribution of the population, conserve energy, reduce congestion, shorten the distance to mobility so efficient, and so on. This is a real drawback for the system of urban development in Indonesia. Actually, the developer has taken the initiative to market the apartments with more affordable price, about U.S.$60,000. The government has launched a simple Flats Property is of course its price is much cheaper, and can be repaid with interest subsidized by the government and its tax exempt.

This is a good opportunity for the budding young entrepreneurs, to make this dwelling as a residence. As of this well-established young entrepreneurs, families will need more space, the number of children increases, then be moved to a "real home" is adequate in a quieter location. Meanwhile, apartment or house Flats existing in the city center can be rented out to other young entrepreneurs or sold. Social life in the apartment of course not the same as life in ordinary society. For example, neighbors not only in the left, right, front or rear, but above and below are also available.

With limited space, residents can not freely and hobbies like gardening. If it will hold an event, such as salvation, can not invite too many people. Furniture must also be taken into account carefully. Because we can not store too much furniture, or buy furniture that is too large. In short, a very high tolerance needed to stay in the apartment. Mutual respect, rational, and value diversity. This culture is a modern communal culture, unlike traditional communal culture that the application of unwritten rules and tend to be loose. Social life in the apartment must establish written rules agreed by all residents and held a joint oversight. This is because usually the occupants of the apartment came from different cultural backgrounds.

Learn More About the Flats

Commonly abbreviated flats or flats is a composite building up or are constructed in a multilevel environment. Inside it is divided into several sections, such as :
  1. Shelter, with a completeness which is jointly owned by the lifts, lobby (living room), drains, gas lines, roofs, foundation piles, power lines and telecommunication lines.
  2. Objects together, include the parking lot, swimming pool, garden, etc.
  3. Common land, land that is home to the building itself.

The reluctance of some people to live in towers as the towers because of the connotation of rundown apartment. In fact, the basic understanding of the apartments and flats are the same. Furthermore, the flat is one surefire solution for overcoming the urban population density and limited land for settlement.

Apartment
VS Flats

Flats term and more widely heard lately. This is actually a part of the Project 1000 Tower towers are being worked on by minister. Flats is the acronym of simple Flats Property, which is marketing heavily subsidized by the government and are primarily for people who earn a maximum of 4.5 million per month. Meanwhile, Flats is the acronym of simple Flats Rent, which is intended for people who earn a maximum of 1.7 million per month.

Differences towers with apartments and condos are the most obvious of finishing. Quality finishing materials for apartment and condominiums using material with Grade A quality, while for flats simply spurious. Parking lot at the apartment, at least one unit has a car park. While flats only have 1 car park for 10 units. Size bunk house with 2 bedrooms with a studio type apartment unit (no room). But even so, for the quality of the foundation, and other basic construction is the same, because the standard for dozens of floors high building should be based on international standards that is standard. For any type of building, usually use big contractors like Clairvoyant international class, and the like.

Another advantage, to live in public housing, usually monthly dues such as electricity, water, sanitation, telephone, security, and others can be much cheaper when compared with the same types of fees in the apartment. Each apartment has no uniform policy on this matter, because it involves the prestige and prestige. Striking is the difference of course the price. One type of units with 33 flats and is located in the city center can be had for about U.S. $ 14,400. When compared with the apartment has an area of ​​more or less equal, the price could reach U.S. $ 700 000

For some people who are classified as subsistence economy (fitting to buy a car, buy a house fit for) the presence of flats would be very helpful. It's just very unfortunate many irresponsible people like the brooker or brokers who buy up as many flats for resale as expensive-expensive. Indeed, young people are always the victims.
