In Vegas, I am no stranger to luxury apartment homes in tall buildings. I do not own any of them. I just have friends who are much more wealthier than I who can afford such luxury apartments. But then again, calling them 'friends' is a bit of a stretch since we do not socialize regularly.Off topic, but exactly that's how I feel. And maybe like 80% of urban Pakistanis.
Edit: except for the snow part.
Anyway...Cities are terrible indicators of the overall wealth and progressiveness of any country, especially when the US and China are, by geographical scope, essentially continental countries. There is an image somewhere on the Internet that superimposed the US over the Moon. That is how large are the US and China. The spread of wealth and technologies over such an expanse is much better in the US than in China, and that should be the true measure of advancement.
