We live in the countryside. In a new development area with about 20 houses at the end. If you want to sleep later than 7 a.m. on a Saturday, you better close the windows. Kids’ noise, neighbors working, cutting tiles, paving, woodworking, mowing the lawn etc. etc.… And lawn mowing and kids on Bobby cars will continue too. And at that time it’s already light for a long time.
And we don’t have roller shutters but window shutters… they can be closed and then a bit of air comes through…. But even that he doesn’t dare to leave open on the ground floor…. Because we actually sleep upstairs, if someone tries anything there we wouldn’t even notice?

Maybe not in your bedroom, but what if the other side of the house is open for cross-ventilation?

I don't do cross ventilation through the night, only until I go to sleep, that's enough. And then just leave the bedroom window open. Everyone probably has to find their own way.

We darken the rooms during the day with roller shutters (at least on the south/west side), ventilate completely crosswise in the mornings and evenings, and keep all the windows tilted at night on the upper floor.

In summer, it was always around 23-24 degrees. The maximum was about 25 degrees on the upper floor when we had >30-degree days and it was also >20 degrees in the evening, then it just doesn’t cool down much in the evening.

They also break in less often (not at all) in new development areas because they know there is nothing to get there. (Exception villas)

Where do you get this knowledge from, are you a burglar?
In our area, they are currently breaking into new housing developments because they are conveniently located on the B16, so you can quickly speed through to the Czech Republic.

I see two problems here: 1. A south-west orientation is unfavorable because you have the sun in the afternoon. Once the balcony is heated up, you only ventilate the heat into the house. 2. Even if you open all the windows, there will hardly be a proper draft since the air has to flow around many corners. That only works with a strong wind. It is particularly problematic in the bedrooms because - typically in apartment buildings - there is only one window and thus the air inevitably has to flow through the entire apartment. There is only limited scope to do anything about both.
