edit: Efficiency apartment are also called studio apartments. It is basically one room that basically has everything (kitchen, bedroom, livingroom, etc.)...very ubiquitous in New York City and some can be quite big.

i reckon he means a shite flat where the sink is next to your bed
In my opinion he is refering to a very poor apartment, which is so small that the bedroom and kitchen are in effect one.Quote:

Where's the option for caravan?
Detached Home, after years of not having people jump on my ceiling, or tell me to turn down my stereo, I wouldn't have it any other way
Yeah, but the people yelling, "Burn, you fucking pikey!" is a bit of a compromise.
Kind of a cross between an apartment and a townhouse. Smaller than a townhouse and with private entraces for all, but there are four to a building.
I'm in British Columbia. :P
:shuriken:
Yeah we have that around here as well. It'll have an upstairs but the one building would have multiple tenants.Quote:

In Busy's defense, he usually always copies other people's words without properly understanding the meaning behind them. He's trying to fit in.Quote:

I live in a home that is unattached from other homes, but attached to a foundation. I think. I have never actually checked on this.
It is only an assumption on my part. ;)
In the UK, apartments are known as 'flats'. I live in a one-bedroomed purpose built flat (as opposed to flat in a converted house) in South London, UK.Quote:

A studio flat is similar but has its own bathroom and may have a separate kitchen.
Having a bathroom for each bedroom in a flat would not be considered 'regular' in the UK. :noes:Quote:
