we have wooden houses that are 300 plus years old... homes are built based on the climate
.. you don't want a brick house in a tornado or earthquake area

I'd rather have wood that sways in an earthquake than bricks that crumble fall on me.

I would imagine it’s due to a lot of things such as USA gets tornados and stuff that could destroy them so would be easier to do a recovery on a wooden structure we don’t get that over here in England

The US Japan and Canada primarily use wood US and Japan frequently have natural disasters. Plus wooden homes are a lot easier to renovate. And the average wooden home could last 100 years unless you plan on living longer than that no need to worry about it.

We have a little thing called weather in the US. Hurricanes, tornados, earthquakes etc. No one wants bricks thrown at 200 mph. It’s also significantly easier and cheaper to fix wood houses as we have tons of woodland resources.

I was shocked how cheap the houses looked in America. The older townhouses are beautiful though. Especially in New York and Chicago

Hmmm I disagree with the UK houses. I compare it to the Netherlands and I find the walls so thin in UK houses😅

In England, it's always too hot in the summer and always too cold in the winter. And then always too damp in between.

You aren't seeing the framing and foundation which is where the strength is. Not saying they are great, but better than they look 😂
