[quote=Anonymous]My neighborhood is 1.25-1.5m. These are normal 4/5 bedroom center hall colonials from mid 90s- mid 00s. Most of my neighbors do next to nothing with their landscaping, don't even plant a single flower. They rarely repaint or redo bathrooms and kitchens. I go inside and most have little to no decorations and the furniture is worn. My neighbors make good money too 350k+. The cars are mid. Mostly Hondas, Mazdas and Toyotas. My next door neighbor made 2m last year and drives a 5year old Honda.

In comparison, my mom lives in a luxury 400k home. Amazing landscaping in her entire neighborhood, everyone has well decorated homes and many hire interior designers. All the cars are Mercedes/Lexus/BMW types. Most of her neighbors make less money than mine do (150k probably, whereas most make 350k+  here).

I could make similar comparisons for my friends who live in other states too like North Carolina. I think DC area people are just unstylish and their homes and cars reflect that. The new builds in the DC area that replace torn down homes are ATROCIOUS with no sense of architectural style or proportion. Actually I'm not sure an architect or a designer even came near those floorplans.[/quote]
