[quote=Anonymous]People in DC complain about large homes for one or more of the following reasons: 1) They fancy themselves trendy hipsters who think of large homes as resignation towards a life of McMansion suburbia. They feel bad that they don't live someplace truly hip and urban like Brooklyn, so they have to pretend. 2) They are from places other than the United States and thus are unaccustomed to the large homes that are typical in many if not most of this country, so liking large homes is "vulgar" or just unfathomable. 3) With the prices in DMV, they simply cannot afford large homes. They secretly envy their friends and relatives living in 4000 sq. ft. homes in Indiana or Ohio, but what can you do? They are here in DC and must pretend they prefer a smaller home.[/quote]
