Comment on More than 100,000 homes in England could be built in highest-risk flood zones

We really need to build plenty of big apartments with high ceilings and decent balcony space in and around town centres with high quality soundproofing so you can’t hear your neighbours even when they’re jumping on the floor.
Understandably people want their own houses with a garden space, but we really need a great alternative to owning a house.
Constantly building out isn’t sustainable. We take up farming land, build on flood plains, need additional public transport and road infrastructure. If we can build up in existing areas then that would be a huge win.

Also concentrate on building in areas high above sea level.
