Zillow defines a starter home as one in the lowest third of home values in a given region.

I wondered what they meant, since to me it means something small, maybe 1k sqft in areas I'm familiar with, simple, 3 bed and 1 bath. Move up from there as needed. Some would call that small and for others it's luxury, it's relative. Also wages don't keep up with the high real estate prices so that's on the employers to pay more and need more public housing if builders won't do it. Make the land available at little cost or spread over long terms like other places have done successfully. Oh the rich builders don't want that so it won't happen, see?

Edit: learn more with this question: How have some places used public land for small groceries and public housing and had long term lease or loans to make it easier?

    Whatever you call maga, their policies have not proven to work for the majority, just theories that never panned out, and too many are still fooled that they are legit and treat them as if they are. Their policies fail people and we can see what policies do work elsewhere, but maga will never pass them. Dems maybe if enough majority for long enough. The polices work in states that have them, passed by Dem majority almost always. So no, we don't want any flavor of gop, call it moderate but no thanks, still shit.

    No more medical bankruptcies or crazy bills, and costs less than the current system. Healthcare is not lost when the owner eliminates your job in a recession and out of work for a year or more. Too many think they have theirs and won't lose it and that's selfish. Do better, demand better, it's not hard to vote for that each time until it passes.

    I trust the summaries on my searches as much as I already know or can verify, like any tool, but I don't log into them. I use the anon ones like duck.ai and lumo and if it limits my usage then time to go anyway. If they track me somehow it doesn't really matter since I do no harm and come in peace.

    Those issues affect everyone though so why they have to be lil beotches about it still doesn't make sense. Also, if they want those things to improve, and have any critical thinking ability to understand what actually works, they would not vote maga. Since they haven't bothered to learn any of this yet, I doubt they will. They want to benefit from being white guys, the privileges we do get, I know, but I still vote for Dems and stand up for liberty and justice for all! We still have advantages, but those guys are selfish and want all the advantages.

    Good for them and I hope many happy times together yet! Sad how all the lies and conditional belonging we get growing up hurts people. The unhealthy ways colonize a person's autonomy, so they police themselves. Teach the Kinsey scale along with sex ed, and whatever number on the scale is fine and each person unfolding per their DNA. Like height, it's not a choice and it's all good!
