The typical family of four lived in a 1200 square foot home in 1960. I will grant you that even that size house in SAN DIEGO might be more expensive on a relative scale than it was 50 years ago, but… in most of the country it is not. You’ve simply chosen to live in a “glamour market” (as Robert Shiller calls it)… with all that entails, sacrifices and all.[/quote]
Well, we’d move in another cheaper state in a heartbeat, believe me, but we couldn’t find jobs. Been looking.
They haven’t been building 1200 sf houses in the last 25+ years…. And today’s furniture would not fit in the 1200 sf house, LOL!
