Most couples don't have the typical DCUM HHI. They afford townhouses in the exurbs on TWO salaries so they can raise their children. Most Americans can never aspire to DCUM salaries.

Shame on you. I despise posters like you. [/quote]

Relax hombre. They didn't voice their opinion..they simply asked why people buy on the basis of 2 incomes..And they are not wrong. A lot of us can't see ourselves living in normal "basic" homes. [/quote]

It took our 2 incomes to buy the most basic house available in the area. Truth is no one is building truly basic houses, but  small, well designed SFHs are something our country definitely needs. Sorry but crowded stacked townhouses with no trees or access to outdoors suck.

Many promotions and a divorce later, it worked out because me and the kids got to stay in the “basic” house while ex traveled and worked. But our 80s house is not truly basic, it is merely basic compared to the 90s and beyond McMansions etc that followed.[/quote]
