Nothing but McMansions as far as the eye can see.

Very, very few under 3000 sqft.

But this retiree lives in a 850 sqft 2bdrm on a 7800 sqft lot. Built in 1948 as a post war ENTRY LEVEL HOUSE.

Hardwood and tile throughout.

My friend just sold his family’s home built in the 50’s small lot around 1200sq foot house.

1.2 million.

Was a starter home in the 50’s.

haha, my 1200 sq ft ranch I was living in in 2000 in Sunnyvale was over $600k back then... Today those homes are nearly 3 Million.

Building smaller homes isn’t going to fix the problems in California....

Sounds like the house my folks rented when I was born in 1961. There were four of us, and one small bathroom. One car garage. The house is still there, just as it was and is now worth a small fortune.
