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)?

Yes indeed if you live in a big condo, your apartment can have roaches, even if it's clean, if other tenants keep theirs dirty. It happened to me in Gramercy Residence in Manila for example, the receptionist told me they routinely spray the entire building but if people keep their apartments dirty, roaches and other insects eventually return.

So, in big condos, especially if not new, you can find roaches even if you're clean. But despite this, I rarely found them...maybe I got lucky.

If somebody is very scared by roaches, he/she can spray the perimeter of his apartment with an anti-roaches spray so they don't get scared
