Living near the mountain can save on bills

[Starmix]

Living near the mountains can lead to potential savings on utility bills due to the natural environment. Mountains often offer cooler temperatures, reducing the need for air-conditioning during the summer months.

Also, access to natural resources such as firewood from nearby forests can lower heating costs during the winter for those people who have a winter season. Homes with southern exposure on mountain slopes may benefit from passive solar heating, further reducing energy consumption. Mountain areas may have lower property taxes compared to urban areas, depending on local regulations and land values.

Moreover, opportunities for outdoor recreation, such as hiking, skiing, or mountain biking, can reduce the need for expensive gym memberships or entertainment options. However, potential drawbacks such as increased transportation costs, limited access to services, and weather–related challenges should be considered.

Yes this is true, but at the end of the day, not everyone would want to stay near the mountains, especially due to the heavy work required to move around.

When I had a short vacation in Malaybalay City, the place was so cold, and no one operated a fan or air conditioning. But it is so far from the city where I live, so I cannot stay longer there. Maybe after some months, I can adjust myself.

Places like that will be best for vacations, especially for maybe writers and designers, it will be awesome to get inspiration.

Agree, when I was there, I wrote poems and short stories. I was able to compose a very nice poem. I may share it here. The place is so far, it took me to travel by a van for 3 straight hours. I don't drive long distances. I might feel tired and sleepy.

In the ancient times that was true but today people are not heavily depended on mountains for livelihood.

Many still like to live near a mountain, but not all mountainous places are safe to live in other countries because of terrorism so peace and order is at stake. Only countries free from rebels, communists, terrorists, and bandits continue living near a mountain.
