Fresh air is great if everyone lived in a super temperate climate where it never went above 75 degrees all year long. Humidity and heat require air conditioning, even in locales where you wouldn't think it would be an issue.

Furthermore, how about allergies? I know some folks who are allergic to air conditioning, and others whose outdoor allergies require that they have air conditioning all year long. Do what works best for you.

It's never a bad idea to do you own personal crime check around any area where you plan on moving, but I wouldn't take the opinion of one person who lives next door as the absolute truth. The cops know what is up and can tell you, at the very least, how many calls have been made in a particular area, if there were any cars stolen on the street, et cetera.

Furthermore, if that woman was really fearful, she would have moved already...otherwise she would have given you a solid reason that she hadn't moved yet. Maybe she has an alterior motive and wants to move a friend of hers into that unit.

I never understood the face down thing. For me, it's about keeping the lip of the glass clean, since that is what will touch mouths unless a straw is used. I've always felt that the bottom of any cabinet is not the cleanest place, no matter how ocd a person can be (you never know what is in there when the cabinet is closed even with a fabulous exterminator), so I've always stored glasses lip side up.
