It's kind of nice imagining a home that only costs 5 figures though, a 5 year mortgage could be a reasonable proposition.

Of course for trivially more money you can have a nice house outside of town and when Deer Lodge is the town... What's the advantage of being in town again?

I assume there's a grocery store in town, being in walking distance to the grocery store can be nice. If you have kids then being within walking distance to school is cool too.

VVV You may be right: I encountered this on a claim recently, Thought for sure is was cement-fiber with asbestos. Owner showed that they were wood. Possibly cedar, but wahtever it was, it was a manufactured product, with a consistent pattern pressed into each shingle.

You lead me into reading the history of the carpet industry and it went gangbusters in the late 50s with the invention of the right synthetic fibers. Like, 6 million yards in 1951 to 113 million in 1960.

Large numbers of those 50’s and 60’s homebuyers were Americans who grew up in icebox-oil lamp-outhouse homes during the depression.

My grandmother loving loved her carpet... she also was 7 in 1932 sharing shoes with siblings and without central heat.

My great grandmother had the carpet on the toilet seats as well. It can only be explained as post-traumatic-outhouse-in-winter-disorder.

I just had an offer accepted on a house, and it was built in the mid/late 60's, and I'm genuinely surprised there's hardwood floors. I thought most new construction from that era just went straight to carpet.

There is carpet in the living room I have to rip up (going off of looks and general wear, looks like it was put down in the late 80's/early 90's) but the OG hardwood is there underneath.

The kitchen, though...well, that's an interesting story.

Fake brick veneer over every wall, even the "backsplash" under the cabinets.

When I moved into my house, the kitchen had fake brick veneer that was really obviously fake, like 3/4"-thick slices of brick with inch-wide gaps between them. One of the previous owners decided that this would be improved by painting the brick pastel lime green.

Even just the bare studs were a massive improvement.

Ugh, tell me about it...who puts a ceiling fan in a kitchen?!

And of course no under-cabinet lighting...or any lighting at all other than the ceiling fan...and I guess the light-bulb in the stove hood (that does not actually vent outside, despite being an exterior wall) works.

Well, that is just awful. Even if it was constructed with top of the line materials, everything about that kitchen just screams "crappy".
