What do you mean by renting versus buying?

Ah, sorry, I wasn't clear. Yes, in terms of renting or buying an apartment.

Renting an apartment is definitely a much cheaper way to live, but it usually involves a lot of stress around knowing that you have to move when the lease expires. Buying an apartment is also a good option, but generally more expensive, and the downside is that you then have to worry about maintaining it.

Okay. Renting sounds like a better option. Isn't it more expensive in the long run, though?
