There could be several reasons that older houses seem to accumulate more dust, but the main one is that it is . . . well . . . . old.

Older things deteriorate - rugs, flooring, dry wall and plaster, etc. Also, the seams and joints might not be well-sealed allowing dust to enter the rooms. It might also depend on the type of heating system used. Radiant heat should be less dusty than forced air, but a filter on the forced air system can keep the dust down.

What are the differences between a french house and an English house?

French houses tend to have more ornate architectural details and intricate design elements, while English houses typically feature a more understated and classic style. French houses often have taller windows and doors, elaborate moldings, and decorative ironwork, while English houses may have smaller windows, a mix of brick and timber framing, and a more symmetrical facade. Additionally, French houses often emphasize symmetry and balance in their layout, while English houses may have a more informal and asymmetrical floor plan.
