Materials:
 Norwegian houses are very beautiful with their wooden panels and slate roofing.  It is normal for their houses to be painted a strong colour such as red, blue or yellow, but white is the most popular. Traditionally houses are built with small sized rooms, to keep in the warmth. They also have steep-ways a fire place or wood oven in the centre of the house to warm up the rooms during the cold winters. 
 In the old days, it was common for Norwegian houses to grow grass on the roof.  Cottage roofs were made out of tree bark and to keep it from curling up they would put turf on top. Grass would then grow on the turf. The grass held the turf down, keeping it on the roof and during the Summer the grass and weeds would shoot and flower. The turf on the roof was also good for insulation, keeping the cottage warm during Winter and cool during Summer. Houses  are usually made of wood instead of bricks or concrete. However, the wood is more prone to water damage and cracking in their climate. Since Norway is a big producer of slate tiles most of the houses in Norway use them for roofing. However, some people go for the cheaper option of corrugated iron. (My Little Norway.)

Facilities:
In a typical Norwegian home their is a family room (sitting room), a nook (an isolated part of a room e.g. breakfast nook), parlour (pantry), dining room, garage, 2 bedroom, master bedroom, den (man-cave) and a bathroom. (Norwegian House Plan Images)

Outside Surrounding:
Norway is, in our opinion, a beautiful  country with lovely scenery. Examples are their ice, blue fjords; freezing glaciers; rolling, green hills and in general gorgeous landscapes to view. If you go or live in Norway you will be able to see the Northern Lights and you wont be disappointed. (Our Opinion)

Size:
On average 2-4 people live in a Norwegian household. This would mean that most people have 1-2 children.  (www.arcgris.com)

Florida Homes
In Florida, houses are made of wood and glass and some homes even have a built in pool. The price increases as you move closer to Miami because then they are made of concrete. Also the houses in Miami have great views of the beach and the sea. Most homes have air conditioning because it is so hot. They also have electricity. Normally rural houses are surrounded by forests and rivers. There is still great scenery outside Miami.The average house in Miami has three bedrooms,  two bathrooms and there is twelve rooms if they are two storey. The price for a average house is two hundred thousand but prices may vary
between counties.

Favela pic

# data[].attributes.body
In Rio's favelas, most homes are made from brick and cement, a majority have running water and about 99% have electricity. Sanitation/ hygiene is often a big problem in Rocinha sewage flows down a large channel in the middle of houses.

In 2017, The Economist reported a population of 100,000 in an area of 1 km (squared). It takes up 6% of Brazil population. More than 600,000 people live in the favelas.

There are not much facilities there. But they do have there basic needs e.g stolen electricity from down the street, food and work for some of them. There is no heating, the sun is the best heater they have. They also have no toilets.

Most favela house's contain up to 6 family members sharing 2 bedrooms adults in one room and children in the others. Sometimes the kids will have to sleep on the floor and if it rains the whole building will collapse.

The outside is very dirty with peoples waste thrown on the ground.

At least 160 people die every day and 58559 people have died since 2014. This is tragic and really sad.

In our opinion we would not like to live in a favela because the government don't fund for these poor places. We also don't like the way that the government made the owners of their favela paint their house so it will look nice. We are very lucky not be living there.
