modest apartment in Tel Aviv cost $100,000 in dollar terms back in 2005. Back then, a single-family home in a good neighborhood in Florida cost around $400,000. ~

Since then the dollar has weakened against the shekel and U.S. property prices have spiraled down. The dollar price of the Tel Aviv apartment more than doubled, to $210,000, while the price of the Florida house shrank by 50%, to $200,000. And that means that for the money you could get for that tiny studio apartment in an undesirable south Tel Aviv neighborhood, you could buy a pretty house in a Florida suburb, lawn and plastic flamingos included.
