ChatGPT is telling me to go to Antarctica. Not sure about the cost of living there. And besides, I don't think their food game all that.

Seriously though, where have you spent a considerable amount of time and seen no roaches (the American and German types)?

Clean your apartment, don't leave food around and you won't see many roaches.

I've lived in Asia for years and I rarely saw roaches

yeah people from west really underestimate the level of ocd it takes to avoid them. i'm from a cold climate and you can leave the trash out, do dishes later that day or even tomorrow, store food in cupboards etc and you won't get roaches, you won't even really get ants.

in thailand no way, you can't leave like one tiny ass crumb left on the floor or ants will come and after that roaches, everything goes in the fridge, trash gets taken out right away, dishes done after every meal, you have to be super ocd about it to avoid them
