Yep, we got 'em here too. Builders love them because they charge by the sq ft but as the houses get bigger the cost per sq ft to build them goes down. <<My guess is that the people who live in them are corporate executives, who are mobile, need upscale housing, and don't have time to spend on the yard.>> They use that "time to spend on the yard" here too. Actually it has more to do with how many lots you can fit per acre. I mean how many people who spend $1MM+ on a house are pushing their own mowers unless it's a hobby? One of the newest developments here has a minimum of 8,000 sq ft for a ranch and 10,000 sq ft for a two story. 3 car garage minimum. The lots are so small it's hard to fit the houses on them.
