I agree that is the case in many old cities. I was born and raised in Detroit, living in a house built in the 1920's. It was a traditional style home for the time and you can still see similar style homes in many cities where houses were built in that timeframe. My point is I am surprised how small it is compared to houses today. It seemed large for my family but I have friends who have bought 5-10 year old homes that were 3500-4000 sq. ft and then added another 2500-3000 to give their 2 kids more room to play? Of course part of the problem was they had too much money! Most likely sold some of their MSFT options? America the land of excess!
