There's a lot of construction noise in Asunción. Practically every street has at least one new building under construction, so there aren't many quiet districts in the city. Do I complain? Not for a single moment! All this noise is a good sign of the rapid development and growth that Paraguay is currently undergoing. This development translates into more jobs, more new apartments at affordable prices, and, in general, more wealth and prosperity for everyone. If you live in a quiet town, it means it's stagnating or even declining—and you definitely don't want that! Remember, even buildings have their lifespan. To keep improving the quality of living, sometimes you have to tear down the old ones and construct new, better ones. So, think twice before complaining about the noise of construction development in your neighborhood...

Just be careful with new construction here. They’re starting to mimic São Paulo building patterns. Using cheap materials with fancy premium design to maximize profit. The duplexes and older apartments often have higher quality materials (solid wood vs MDF, etc).

True, but this is happening all around the world. I've lived in many apartments, and the quality varies greatly. 🤷‍♂️

It varies, but I feel different cities have different general characteristics. I’ve never emotionally forgiven São Paulo for its cheap overpriced “luxury” apartment marketing 😅🙃

😂

Ycua Sati is pretty chill, next to Paseo and no constructions
