Many houses are built with basements of varying size. Again, as I said, it's no picnic in a house either, but often times, people in a house can go to the basement to get a bit cooler, or rooms more interior to the house.

The person living in a basement apartment is going to be cooler than the person living on the top floor without electricity, for the most part.

Some houses are being hit directly by the sun, yes. But there is also the *possibility* of cross breezes, if they are detached. This is often not the case in apartment buildings.

Does it get hotter on the 8th floor of an apartment building than the first floor of a house? Well, there will be many variables, but my sneaking suspicion is that overall I bet we'd be better off in a house.
