Everyone I have ever known who lived in CONDO type housing was bothered by

I agree. I lived in an apartment building once and had an Indian couple
across the hall. Nice people but I couldn't handle the smell of their
cooking. I was always the same, day in and day out. I would have gladly
swapped them for a smoker.
