Condo. A condominium may be simply defined as an "apartment" that the resident owns as opposed to rents.
Townhouse. The name townhouse is used to describe units mimicking a detached home that are attached in a multi-unit complex. It is also a house on a small footprint in a city, but because of its multiple floors (sometimes six or more), it has a large living space, often with servant's quarters. The small footprint of the townhouse allows it to be within walking or mass transit distance of business and industrial areas of the city, yet luxurious enough for wealthy residents of the city.
