I agree with everything you’re saying here. But I would not want to be the poor sap that paid $625k to live in a place like that. Those prices are insane.

Completely agree these prices are nuts. Most of it is location though. Even still: lots of these places were selling for 100-200k 5 years ago.

Those are nice except for the price. It's not the size, it's the sprawling developments with thousands of identical cookie cutter houses that I was talking about. I personally wouldn't want to live in one or near one.

The people moving into those houses wanted to. You don’t want to.
Do you think living in a suburb is better or worse than living in a ditch or under a bridge?
“Would you really live in that?!?!!” Uh, yeah? Because I already do? And love my house? And maybe that’s why I’m suggesting that specific style of house as a solution? Because I currently live in one with the rest of my family.
And before you start thinking “oh poor him”. I can almost guarantee you that I make more money than 99% of the people posting here.
Could you believe the poor sap who might live in a place like this?
