Call To Power 2 Cradle 3+ mod in progress: https://apolyton.net/forum/other-games/call-to-power-2/ctp2-creation/9437883-making-cradle-3-fully-compatible-with-the-apolyton-edition
High ceilings and concrete floor means I get no disturbance from the floor above. Also, beware low water pressure on the top floor. Living as I do in the crypt, I get fantastic water pressure. Power showers
The upper-middle floors are the best. Not too hot in the summer, not too cold in the winter, no insects, you get a little sun if your apartment faces South, etc.
I came upon a barroom full of bad Salon pictures in which men with hats on the backs of their heads were wolfing food from a counter. It was the institution of the "free lunch" I had struck. You paid for a drink and got as much as you wanted to eat. For something less than a rupee a day a man can feed himself sumptuously in San Francisco, even though he be a bankrupt. Remember this if ever you are stranded in these parts. ~ Rudyard Kipling, 1891
Normally 1st floor but if it is in a high traffic area where I would hear lots of street noise 3rd or 4th would be better. If there is some sort of compelling geographic reason, like a view of the ocean or something, then obviously I'd go with as high as necessary to get the view.
1st, due to fire concerns. On the end. "Down and out".

For some reason top floors are not considered to be attractive here in Bulgaria.
I personally think like DanS although as long as there is good insulation on the roof top floor is very attractive for me for the reasons already mentioned bu Loin and Super49er.
2nd floor. Close to the ground but high enough to keep unauthorized entries to a minimum.

Top, in case the market crashes while your at home.

"Capitalism ho!"
2nd floor. Close to the ground but high enough to keep unauthorized entries to a minimum.
Unauthorized entry isn't a concern. I have attack cats for when I'm gone and a Mossberg Persuader for when I'm home.
I live in a 2 story condo. I catch my own heat from downstairs and have 2 thermostats that control it just fine.

Ground, 1st or top. Ground floor apartments get gardens, 1st floor ones minimize the need to use the stairs of lift while making burglary less of an issue, and top floor ones get the best view. Anything in between seems like effort for little reward.
Top floor for me - I can escape the street noise and steal everyone else's heat
But the heat escapes much more easily, as what's on top of you is cold, rather than another warm flat.
