It's better than being in a condo though, where you're basically left at the mercy of the board. My mom has been pissed at her local condo because things are wrong with the common utilities but her neighbors are either too poor or too cheap to get them fixed properly, thus she suffers through things.
In a rowhouse, you control all of that directly (except in rare cases like a common chimney, like I outlined above).
