Less 'domestic', perhaps? People in UF (outside of, say, the Exile stories or parts of Warriors of the Outer Rim) tend to live in comfortable, homey places, cook their own dinners, shovel the snow off the garden path, banter with their housemates, etc. In TIA, Gryphon and Zoner are 'in transit', as it were, and while the Knight Sabres presumably have places to go home to, I'd guess they pretty much just sleep there (or hack there all night long, in Nene's case). This adds to the 'cyberpunk' feel alluded to above by Gryphon (I tend to find parallels to Shadowrun, because it's my main experience of cyberpunk).
