Hong Kong - these are your normal privately-developed condo complexes.

http://ieng9.ucsd.edu/~ccheuk/sscpix/hk-housing.jpg

They usually have recreation facilities such as swimming pools, gyms, cafes, etc. Many of them are built on top of malls, which makes things even more convenient. The best Hong Kong housing innovation IMO is the apartment complexes on top of a mall on top of an MTR station (of course, the MTR Corp. would be one of the developers of these).

On the lower end, government housing projects are also 40-50 storey blocks but much less sophisticated in appearance. Facilities are more basic.

On the higher end, luxury developments have more interesting architecture and improved facilities. The most valued (i.e. expensive) luxury, however, is the view outside the window.

In Toronto Canada ( Suburbs) you can find these

http://pictures.mls.ca/mls/reb82/medres/8/n6814581.jpg http://pictures.mls.ca/mls/reb82/medres/5/n6489751.jpg

the prices however in the GTA have gone up alot. My family bought a 2000 sqft house for $237000 and we sold it for 330000. About 10 years ago you could of gotten a 3000 sqft house for $237000. Houses in other parts of canada such as ottawa, parts of northern ontario are much cheaper.

^ I hate those homes with the garages that stick out like that, they seem to be improving that problem though.

In Finland, mostly middle-sized single apartment or row-houses like these:

http://www.poratek.fi/assets/images/postikuvia/maaparain_3.jpg


but also apartment buildings like this renovated commieblock 1km from where I live:
http://kuvat.dime.net/al/a1466/kta11671a2.jpg

In these suburbs it's often impossible to tell which are middle-class apartment houses, as the social structure is very mixed. There are often some cheap rental apartment buildings in an areas othervice dominated by middle-class ownership apartments, just to avoid other areas to develop into nasty poor-only ditricts.

In spain ,today,the new promotions for the middle class are apartments with swimming pool, parks, tennis... in the center of the urbanization or semi-detached houses

Promotions in Madrid

This is more like it:

Norway outside Oslo: almost 100% of the population is middle class, and live mostly in single attatched houses or rowhouses, like these.

Oslo: More rich people and more poor people, but still a big middle class in international context. Most live in apartments like these.

Here in the basque country it's quite similar to Oviedo (we're in spain too.... or not? can't remember ;) ) but it depends on wether you live in a rural area, in which case you'll probably find new houses like this one:

http://www.lurraska.com/etxea3.gif
http://usuarios.lycos.es/xabierpagola4/errekalde_3.jpg

or the typical...

http://www.aeg.es/aisiarea/turismo/img/Agroturismo/eguzkitzaetxea.jpg

or older houses like:
http://galeon.hispavista.com/etxezuria/img/Etxea%20kanp.JPG

and if you live just by the most remote place on earth, you'll have something like:

http://www.egoibarra.com/Eibar/Baserri_eta_Auzoak/Baserri_Galeria/GEzkaregi.jpg

but if you live in a urban area (Bilbao, San Sebastian or any other city) you'll probably live in an apartment, not plenty of empty ground around here!

http://usuarios.lycos.es/xabierpagola4/pioxii_1.jpg

if you're upper-middle class, you'll live in the city centre:

http://usuarios.lycos.es/xabierpagola4/reyescatolicos_1.jpg
http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v737/txoriburu/donostia/P1030506.jpg
but that's very expensieve for most of the people so, you'll probably have to go to the outskirts, which look like:

http://usuarios.lycos.es/xabierpagola3/tolosaetorbidea1.JPG
http://i2.photobucket.com/albums/y19/tirapu/donostia/P1010491.jpg

there are some new neighbourhoods that look quite nice but they're more middle-upper thatn middle class. Anyway, part of them are built by the government so if you're lucky you can get a cheap but nice apartment. Just need to be veeeeeery lucky :p

http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v737/txoriburu/donostia/TOLOSA_ETORB3.jpg

or you can choose to live in the old town, which is in the city centre:

middle class people mostly live in highrise apartments in Istanbul the situation is same in other big cites but in little cites you can see lower versions of this apartments.

some of those houses you posted are massive, and i bet those london ones cost millions to buy.
