Cheap houses in my area
$16,000 8LDK

$30,000 2LDK

$40,000 5LDK

All of these are within a 10 minute drive of a grocery store, drug store, and schools. They're just slightly less convenient than the more central neighborhoods.

Japan doesn't count. Housing costs in Japan operate on an inverted curve from most of the western world. :colbert:

I've been a naval officer for 18 years and have never seen or heard that term outside a history book.
