INTVEEs live in a four apartment flat. They think there is some animosity towards house owners form the older inhabitants who have always rented. Male INTVEE would like to have a car if they didn’t have the house payments and is quoted as saying "that's it - I'll feel I've arrived when I get my car". They go to church in Stockbridge but are not members of any organisations. They like most of all to go out together for a meal or a drink.
