They seem rather difficult to get into and probably more difficult to construct. I'm most curious as to why they would live in such places.

  1. the property value is high


  2. It was a very smart move. The dwellings located in hot climates provided a cool place which could be easily warmed up in the winter as well as just the cool desert nights. Cliffs made great shelters from environment and enemies. You might enjoy to have a visit sometime yourself. Personally I enjoyed the ones in Mesa Verde but you might be able to find some closer to where you live.
