Apartment
An apartment is a self-contained
housing unit that occupies only part of a building. Apartments may be owned (by an
owner-occupier) or rented (by
tenants).The term "apartment" is favored in
North America, whereas the term "flat" is sometimes, but not exclusively used in the
United Kingdom and most other
English-speaking areas and
Commonwealth nations (
Canada being a notable exception); in those countries, "apartment" is often used to describe more upmarket flats.
