Notice the Coruscant cityscape around the Jedi Temple


I mean, all of it is the same maximum level, and is miles and miles in all directions of flat, featureless concrete and steel construction of habitation - CHRIST, it must be boring and tedious living in such CHEAP housing! At least elsewhere on Coruscant, you had lots of individual skyscrapers, but not in that low-budget area!

Maybe nobody wants to live near young apprentices who are learning to use weapons and The Force.

God only knows what's falling out of the sky around there, or what kind of student pranks the little bastards pull!

It's a little interesting, because in Episode III we see there are many towering skyscrapers closer to the temple.

haha in the Discworld books the housing around the Unseen University (think Hogwarts, but more dangerous) is really cheap because the spells cast by student wizards made the area unstable, and "broken down spells" made strange things happen, like garbage coming to life.
