Several months back I bought a McMansion (but tasteful) in Houston, in the seedier end of a very desirable neighborhood. 42xx sqft, $7xx,000. Maybe $180/sqft for brand new construction. Lot value was ~275k. So construction cost less than $125/ft. In prime financial district of Houston. Commute to my secure job in medical center: 12 minutes door-to-door, maybe 18 minutes in the evening. No state income tax. Crappy weather 7 months of the year, Pretty nice the other five. My garage is 50% bigger than this house! Still think about moving back to CA, though. I want some of whatever they’re smoking.
