You couldn't give me a house constructed in either fashion. They are both built to burn. Whatever happened to brick and blockwork construction?

Too laborious to practically build for a population. Especially when your economic system is such that essentially all home construction is determined by the market.

Typical american problem, they still construct homes out of 2x4 match sticks to this day, with an average lifespan of 30 years if it doesn't catch fire. Here in civilesed Europe we live in brick and stone buildings that have lasted for centuries, and will last many more.

Stone is a bad choice in where there's earthquakes. If we put your stone house in the west coast, it would be unrepairable in a few years.

Typical European pretentiousness. It is not as if we don't have brick buildings in the US, in fact most structures in my home city of Chicago are brick and mortar. You also wrongly assume that it is "just the US" that builds wooden homes, or that we are the only place on earth that has a high turnover rate. Perhaps you should go visit Canada, Australia, Japan, among many other countries that have ample access to lumber and have long histories building with it. Don't make your lack of natural resources a flex because it isn't one. Our lumber industry is also one of the most sustainably managed in the world. You can build lumber homes to be fire resistant, and new lumber types like CLT and Glulam are building materials that aren't just being used in the US now but also are gaining popularity in Europe (see: mass timber buildings, CLT homes, etc.). These also have excellent fire resistance and safety. Yes, there are a lot of poorly built homes in the US, but these are typically mass produced homes in suburbia. That is not to say that Europe knows no such poor construction. Don't be an elitist clown. It's a bad look.

The difference here in America is Mass production everyone has a house. I have a house and so does all of my other family members you europeans all live in the same house. you are limited by your infrastructure. Just like your roads you cant get a semi truck in your country because you are limited by the past.

I live in a fairly typical wood-frame American home in the suburbs that's easily double the size of the average home in Europe. In the extremely remote chance that it ever burns down, I'll build an even bigger one on the same spot. Meanwhile, I've got 3 large bedrooms, a home office, 3 full baths, a large kitchen, a dedicated laundry room and a 2 car garage to enjoy.
