These places are crowded and you never know what kind of pervert characters around. You don't want your children or even yourself to be victims. A condo also provide security, you won't worry about vandals & painting of O$P$ on your flat wall. You won't have salesmen knocking on your door.

Why would some people pay millions for a condo? It is a status symbol. Once you can afford a condo, you have made it. All your hard work from young till now finally pays off.
But he needs to sacrifice a bigger HDB space for a smaller condo space for a much higher price. And I don't think people end up utilising alot of the facilities. I went to condos for viewing and most of the time even in the evening, the pools are quite empty.

I didn't say people should avoid condos at all cost. If one can more than comfortably pay for it, then go for it.
