Why are these homes still so popular? The answer is simple: everything is known by comparison. The next generation of homes was built in haste. In the construction of “Khrushchev” and “Brezhnevok” was much more important speed, as well as the number of houses, but certainly not their convenience.

As you can see, the shortcomings of Stalin’s houses mainly concern not only them, but also all the old housing.

Sometimes neighbors may not meet the most favorable kind. It’s not strange because the house has been around for years.
