Twilight comes from privilege in both dimensions.
Meanwhile Sunset is a refugee from the horse dimension whom may or may not have had high upbringings back there. Considering that she was Celestia’s original apprentice.

It’s really disappointing we never got to see Sunset’s familial background.
Heck, we actually have more details on Trixie’s supposed family in the background than we did for Sunset. All the other Mane casts have had their families visited at least once in the series. Including Starlight.

Sunsets house looks pretty nice btw might be small but a homes a home but Twilights house is literally a mansion

@Ping_chan  
Well, some places have nuisance laws wherein if you let your property get so rundown that it becomes an eyesore they can arrest you.

Twilight sparkle got a nice house
 
She got a Manson dang she rich XD

@Inkan1969  
Heh I live just outside of city limits and have no HOA. :d

@Selaphiel  

 
Um, yeah, I don’t mind getting in big trouble with the HOA or getting arrested by the police for creating a public nuisance.

@Inkan1969  
Then don’t tend the lawn. Your property, your rights.

@Selaphiel  

 
I’ll always take an apartment over a house where I have to waste time tending a lawn.

@Pudding Pone  
Yes?  
Mr House?

@Selaphiel  
Excuse me!

Apartments are for STUPID people.

I haven’t been following equestria girls very closely, but Sunset Shimmer does have a job, right?  
I wondering how she can afford an apartment if she’s still in high school…

A not-so-subtle reminder that Sci-Twi’s family is loaded, while Sunset Shimmer barely scrapes by.

@Background Pony #6619  
Or they’re just short.

Those are some giant doors lol

@MrSeyker  
Judging by the massive rectangular window the sun comes in at the start and the fact that her ‘bedroom’/loft has a smaller, square window, she’s gotta be in one of the top rooms. I’m thinking two bedrooms and then a shared kitchen and maybe living-room below.

@ChuymaruZ
 
And it’s not tree shaped.

Sunset’s house there is what’s known as a “brownstone apartment” or “row house”. You find them all over the place in big cities in the eastern US. They’re cheap, probably 2 or 3 bedrooms and 1 or 1 1/2 baths. Usually the entire block is lined with them, but here it looks like the surrounding ones were torn down and replaced by commercial buildings.
 
So yeah, Sunset’s living in the slums. That’s about the cheapest housing you’re going to get without relying on roommates to help pay the rent.

@ChuymaruZ  
Selling Susie of course

@Background Pony #B4A3  
It’s true for Pony Twilight too.

Twilight’s parents must be really well off

@MrSeyker  
Didn’t quite get that impression myself.

@Alexlayer
 
Going by the layout of her room, we got two rooms in the top, and two on the bottom. Her bedroom is on the first floor, on the top right window.

I kinda wonder, is the door we see on the outside the same one door we see inside of Sunset’s apartment? Is the whole thing a single room, not counting the bathroom?

@Background Pony #BCE4  
It’s probably a duplex. Living quarters on the upper floor.  
I’d actually like to see the Dazzlings rent out the other half :P  
See how Sunset handles her new neighbours.
 
Twilight is lives the good life!
