How about buying a penthouse in Shanghai?

Let's see if the bad aspects can be tolerated:

One of the disadvantages: noise pollution

The building where I live is not facing the street, but at night, a big car comes on the highway in the distance, and my room feels "deafening". Later, someone asked, saying that the noise of the building decreases from the first floor to the eighth floor, but after the eighth floor, the noise will increase because of reflection; On the other hand, at the lower level, the noise has dropped a lot due to the shielding effect of the surrounding buildings, but at the upper level, it stands out from the crowd, so there is no such treatment. Now, I want to convert windows and get more windows. The effect is not bad.

The second shortcoming: the wind whistling.

It took a winter on the top floor to realize the harshness of winter. I often feel that walking in the community, the breeze blowing on my face, can go to the top floor, but there are bursts of ghosts and wolves howling outside the window, which is scary enough. I think that's why I stand out from the crowd. At the bottom, the wind speed decays quickly because of the great resistance, but at the top, it is very windy in the air near 100 meters. Therefore, in winter, the sealing of windows is very important, not only for heat preservation and dust prevention, but also for sound insulation.

The third disadvantage: there are mosquitoes.

This seems incredible. Whose mosquito has such great ability to fly 100 meters high? But after being attacked by mosquitoes in summer, I believed it. You know, I haven't been kissed by mosquitoes for more than ten years, so the sudden attack has impacted my skin. When communicating with neighbors in the building, there are mosquitoes on several floors at both ends of the tower. The mosquitoes at the bottom came from the grass, and the mosquitoes at the top came up by elevator, and most of them parachuted from the roof. As long as it rains and there is water on the roof, it will continue to buzz for the next week, so the top floor can rest assured of protecting the net, but the windows must be screened.

Despite these shortcomings, the bright side is even more gratifying:

One of the benefits: bright hall.

The advantage of the top floor is sufficient lighting. This feeling is most obvious when you take the elevator. The process of elevator ascending is the pursuit of light. No matter how sunny the weather is, the ground floor feels dark and damp. No matter how cloudy the weather is, the top floor is full of bright light. I like this one best. Only on the top floor can my French window and spring sofa create that relaxed mood.

The second advantage: landscape

Only at the top floor can people's vision cross the cement forest and look for the green of Beijing. Many houses pay attention to scenery everywhere, and every household has a view, so there is a small flower bed under the window root. This landscape is not atmospheric, but you can only see the clear Wan Li and misty rain on the top floor. Landscape is inseparable from vision. I think the preference for vision may be caused by personal personality?

Benefit 3: property.

The top floor is the most valuable in terms of property fees. Water, electricity and heat, the top floor is the end point, and all designs are based on meeting the needs of the top floor. For example, the water pump fee,/kloc-residents below 0/8 meters, is paid in vain, and it will not work if they don't pay it; Elevator fee, people walk short distances, the top floor is always from beginning to end, and the elevator utilization rate is the highest; Cleaning fees, etc., the bottom garbage smells bad after sweeping, while the top floor, with few people, has been left unattended; In addition, public spaces such as stairwells are shared by the whole building on the ground floor and shared by several households on the top floor, which is conducive to maintenance.
