Is it more common in some areas vs others? I've never heard the term used in real life, but I understood it from context.
I don't know but I am from NYC. I only heard the term used there.
Makes sense. I haven't seen an apartment with an elevator in quite a while, so perhaps the distinction just doesn't matter here. Most apartment complexes here are 3 floors or less, and I think there's a cap at 5 floors or something for regular construction because the only ones bigger than that are the massive towers downtown.
There are older buildings in NYC that have a lot of floors that don't have elevators. One I looked at was 7 floors, it was called a 7 floor walk up. New buildings in NYC that are 5 floors or more higher need an elevator.
