A long time ago people started in 1000 sq. ft and less down to 750 sq ft. I think local building regulations make building a house prohibitive for most young couples and poorer people. It is a huge problem however, I agree. Try building anything in Florida  now, it is prohibitive to lesser income people simply because of the hurricane codes, and then other restrictions. I agree there are many huge barriers but I think most are imposed by government via regulation. I understand what you say about people moving from higher priced areas to your's. It happened while I lived in Colorado, California evacuees drove prices astronomically higher finding homes to settle in. It is a huge problem for younger couples and families. It's shameful in my mind. Thanks for the response.</p></blockquote><p></p>
