perhaps pre-apocalyptic vs post-apocalyptic is a better distinguisher? and i’d say this looks pre; but it could be recently post and the electricity’s still running. so i won’t fault you for being confused
i mean there could be people in a wasteland (exempli gratia) even though it’s clearly post-apocalyptic, so i guess that was bad advice to give you

Hehe, personally that seems more confusing. With “inhabited” at least there is something specific to look for (people). Judging if something is pre or post apocalyptic, while allowing abandoned stuff to be pre-apocalyptic, feels more difficult.
most likely if the buildings were built from scratch for their current function, it fits here, whereas if they’re scratch-built from old vehicle carcasses or whatever, they’d fit better in wastelands.

yeah that’s fair, that’s why i do accept it’s conjecture. i just go by the kind of “feeling” of the piece, but i know that isn’t exactly something you can use
i’ve also just noticed i used “built from scratch” and “scratch-built” as opposites in that comment, which i imagine also isn’t hugely helpful…
