top is always the best. less noise. as an added bonus, when I lived in Dallas they had the meters wired wrong so my downstairs neighbor was paying my electric bill

i need to find an apartment like that.
Definitely the top. Sucks when you're moving in, but after that you only have your next-door neighbor and your below-floor neighbor as likely noise sources. Fewer bodies that way.
First floor please,
much cooler in the summer.
unless "first" is the basement.
2nd coice 2nd floor.
I lived on the 3rd floor when I was little. Ugh.

Since I have had the joy of lugging a friends fold-out sofa up (and then down from when he moved out 4 months later) to his 3rd floor apt in Dallas, I swore 1st floor always.
Actually the third floor sucks, especially if you buy alot of groceries or big products. I was single when I lived on the third floor and it was a pain.
I enjoyed living on the first floor.
Third floor. 3 floors is nothing, you're a wuss if you can't handle a 3 floor walkup.
First floor sucks. Street noise is terrible.
Second floor is ok, but you may have asshole upstairs neighbors like I do.

but you'll have to hear it through the floor
I've lived in a third-floor apartment in a 3-story building for the past year or so.
moving in sucked. we also don't have any couches because of the effort required to carry them up and brind them back down whenever we move.
if I were looking for an apartment today, I'd probably look for a first-floor apartment (assuming it's set back from the street). if the front door in your living room opens right out onto the street, I'd go with the second floor.

Only ever lived in one apartment, it was on the first level, but it was half underground. My windows were about chest level inside, ground level outside. Our heat/electric bills were always pretty low, and the noise wasn't bad. The only noise we could hear was when the girls above us were having sex (presumably with guys, but not in our minds).
