My dad would disagree. He was born in 1930, and he said he grew up “camping “ in a one room house with no electricity or running water. He often woke up with frost on his bed. To get a drink of water he had to light a fire in the stove to warm up the water pitcher.
In the summer it was 100+ degree temperature outside and like an attic in the house.
