[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I grew up in a TH as a kid and didn’t feel deprived at all, I live in a TH now and I love how cheap it is, my mortgage is 5% of my gross income. Never stress about money and save 70% of my paycheck. The local schools are also pretty good and wouldn’t feel bad about sending my young kids there. I could afford a 7 figure home but don’t see the need. Why does everyone feel like they need a SFH?[/quote]

I think it’s a stigma thing or a “keeping up with the Joneses” situation.

The ones who have bought the 7 figure SFH are house poor, and always want people to visit them because they bought such a big house with no one visiting them. And no one wants to drive an hour out in the suburbs to hang out with your friend in a SFH. [/quote]

Some of my friends moved to the burbs and bought a SFH. We never see them. They have a nice big house and all but I’m not spending half my day to go visit them in their giant house. [/quote]

There are plenty of SFH in DC and plenty of townhouses in the burbs... just pointing this out. It's not either / or. Especially as you can easily say they never see you either![/quote]

All my friends moved somewhere like Fairfax or McLean for a SFH. As someone who lives in DC, you can’t pay me enough to drive all the way out there to see your Shitty Family Home. You wanna hang out? Come to the city. [/quote]
