Why do British people live in cramped houses? After all, they are considered to be a very advanced nation.

we do not live in cramped houses, i lived in Georgia USA 2 years, and my American house, would fit in just my living room area, English houses are far from cramped.

my house as a kid !

living room,

dinning room

pantry

breakfast room

kitchen

4 bedrooms

bathroom

outside toilet

3 coal bunkers

2 bird Avery , with 300 budgies in

a pond with a water feature and resident toad lol

and that was the smallest house on the street, others had 5 bedroom , plus garage

in fact some off the houses now have swimming pool in basements,

our loft went full size of house, and had a model railway , running all around it.
