It’s becoming obvious, if it wasn’t already, that California real estate is uniquely expensive compared to the rest of the country. According to Zillow’s September index, the median price for a single-family home in the state — $549,000 — is high, but house prices are even higher in its four biggest cities:
Los Angeles: $898,949
San Diego: $848,500
San Jose: $1,099,990
San Francisco: $1,400,000
In the majority of major American cities, you’d pay less for a house. And in many, you could buy several houses for the cost of a single home in a California city.

According to Zillow, the median price for a single-family home in Texas is $277,062 — half of what the same home would cost in California.
When comparing the home prices city-by-city, California’s exorbitant home prices become even more glaring. Check out these four major Texas cities and their current single-family residence price:

Average annual rainfall:
Lubbock 19.18 inches.
Del Rio 19.52 inches
El Paso 9.69 inches
Compare with Malibu, California - 21.05 inches.
I’ve lived here 14 years and was stationed here for 3 years and I have yet to see a fire ant.
And besides the far cheaper house, you don’t have to worry about stepping into Pelosistuff when you walk outside.
Or worry about meeting congresscritter-acting slime camping outside your house.
