I absolutely believe XIV has the worst housing system in any mmo ever, just because of the timer. Auction houses and rent are painful, yes. But in other games there's still generally something you can do or have. Sometimes it's even free until you get a house. The neighborhood aspect comes into play very, very far and in between and when people talk about their experiences, I've found it's only 3 people in the sea of literal thousands.

My apartment is in a ward of 90% locked houses. Yes, so much community. I love my neighbors who close off their homes and never talk to me.
