Also, running a dairy farm requires some economy of scale that renting a house doesn't

  If you have enough land for the cow to eat grass (note we are carefully not counting the cost of this land) you can milk the cow by hand: the only equipment needed is what you probably already have in your kitchen anyway, and a few bottles of "cow lotions" (some are cleaners but in any case cheap). Running a dairy farm with 3000 cows has a lot of economy of scale but that is mostly time. And happy cows - cows much prefer their comfortable barn year round to being outside in the weather.
