Apartments are where there are multiple individual units within a common entry building.

A condominium is an apartment that one buys/owns vs. a rental apartment.

Flat is just the British term for apartment/condo, although sometimes you’ll hear the term used to define a small apartment building (ie. here in Chicago, a 3-floor building with 3 apartments would typically be referred to as a 3-flat, even though each individual unit would be called an apartment).

Townhouse are connected housing units each with their own entrance to the outside, typically multiple story.

A bungalow is a one story single family house or one with a partial second floor, typically lower slung/wide roof.
