America being filthier than India is a weird hill to die on particularly by 2 NRI's.

Who's telling you not to?

Also, home ownership/rent is a stupid metric.

My village had 80 houses of UC's and 100 houses of Dalits. On paper, all 100 houses of those Dalits were owned by residents but not even half of them had Bathrooms in their houses and they used to defecate in fields even just 10 years ago.

Now you are making excuses and using anecdotal evidence

I don't want to google and post the hundreds of publicly available studies done on open defection issue in India.

I’ve also been to Lucknow and UP briefly

Let’s also count Indian renters then. You will still get a higher homeless percentage for the US

Most houses in India are filthy.

You call these pigstys houses?

And outside of posh area of Lucknow what do you see?

Black ghettos which are typically the poorest parts of USA have much better houses than the abomination above.

This area would be considered Middle class in India.

Just weird behavior from @srev2004 .

I can only see 1 reason. His stay in US has been terrible and he has developed an unhinged hatred towards USA which has completely clouded his judgement.

Filthy is the wrong word to describe the homes in this picture. Dilapidated is more appropriate

Nah. I have a non colonial mindset. Lucknow is not that different than Italy

 

[Vinash]

FYI, my house in India is very near to this street and my house is in a better area than this.



Even I who lived in such a decent area in India wouldn't be deluded to say that USA has it worse than India.
