Cheap per square foot. Here's a random pin drop I did outside Houston: http://public.kulak.us/screenshots/2023-11-14-150246.png http://public.kulak.us/screenshots/2023-11-14-150246.png and here's central Portland: http://public.kulak.us/screenshots/2023-11-14-150343.png http://public.kulak.us/screenshots/2023-11-14-150343.png Those may be expensive houses in the first image, but I guarantee cost per square foot is an order of magnitude cheaper. If waves of folks want the first image, more power to them. I'm not gonna stop them. But I also don't want to pay for it.
