I was following your comment until you called a 1500 sqft house small...
In the US the median size of a single family house is about 2400 sqft. For an American 1500 is relatively small.
30 years ago, this was true, but now one has to have a high paying job to afford even that! I've seen over $350k for such a home.
I'm using current data for the median size of a US home. In fact 30 years ago it was quite a bit smaller. My comment did not address the price of such a home in any way.
I am still fucking lost because I don't speak joke Units.
for normal people out there 1500sq ft are about 140 sq meters.
ao that's like a bigger house or almost twice my 3 bedroom apartment
Honestly I just sort of guessed a number. There's a bunch of older/starter homes that are bigger than the traditional 'tiny home' and would never fit on a trailer, but are still what would be small for my area. I didn't really know what size those would be.
