Living on the third floor at your apartment can at times be frustrating, especially when you are trying to lug groceries or furniture up three flights of stairs. However, as frustrating as it may be from time to time, there are some really great bonuses to living on the top floor.
No Neighbors Above You
You will never have any upstairs neighbors pounding on the ground and bothering you with noise. If you start hearing noises above you, it could only be either thunder or some really big squirrels. You also don't have to worry about an upstairs neighbor dumping liquid or a cooler full of ice over the balcony passed your balcony.
The Best Views
Looking out of your windows or going out on your balcony from the third floor can provide you with some of the best views in the community. How can you beat that?
Less Car Traffic Noise
Up high, you are further away from the parking lot and the cars passing back and forth. This helps you isolate yourself away from the noise as well and things are a little quieter.
Harder For Crime
It may also be more difficult for a burglar to break into your apartment through the windows on a higher floor unless they are good at scaling walls. They also would be less prone to take things out of your place because they would have so far to lug that stuff.
Work Out
The best bright side of all is that you get a little more of a work out and burn more calories than you would in a downstairs apartment just by simply going to and from your place. (This is no way to get fully in shape, but every little bit helps.)
So there you have the top five reasons that living on the top floor in your apartment building is a really awesome thing. Enjoy it. Relish it. Remember to live for fun!
Extra Tip: Keep a big brown box broken down in your trunk that you can put together and use to bring your groceries up in bulk and in one trip. :)
