Suburban Amenities

One thing that the city and the suburbs have in common is amenities. Amenities are things that people in a community share.

In condos or apartments, one amenity that is very common is a recreation room. People can go there and play games or hang out.

These amenities are shared by the entire apartment complex and can be used by anyone who wants them.

But in suburban neighborhoods, because there is more room than there is in apartments and condos, there is more room for amenities.

Often, suburban communities have trails as amenities. These trails go through the woods and people can walk or run on them whenever they want.

This pond is an amenity that many children like because they can go fishing in it.

Some suburban communities have pools for everyone to share. This is a great amenity and parents feel safe sending their children there.

One very common amenity is a playground. Most of the time, families move into suburban communities, so many people want playgrounds.

A soccer field is a great amenity, but because it takes up so much space, it is less common than other amenities.

One suburban community amenity that is uncommon is a golf course. People pay more for a house with a golf course, but they are okay with paying more money.

This weight room is a great amenity for a suburban community. Communities with great amenities like this one are more expensive.

A club house, or community center is also an amenity that many suburban communities have. People often reserve the community center to have big parties or meetings.

Ultimately, the purpose of amenities is to create a community of neighbors, and that is why they have amenities.
