When students first heard about this idea,they thought the container apartments would be small,noisy,and cold.(80) Each container apartment has a kitchen,a bedroom with a study area,and a bathroom.The apartments are warm and quiet.They even have a high﹣speed Internet connection.Living in a shipping container has become popular.Today,3,000Amsterdam students live in the container village.
