That is very true. As does cost of living. I have a relative that lives in Missouri and she and her husband bought a full resort that has about 10 acres of land, is on a river, has multiple cabins plus a large 4 bedroom house and they paid around 250K for it about 10 years ago. They are thinking of selling it and now it is worth about 400K. In southern California 400K will maybe get you a little 2 bedroom house with a tiny yard. I saw a show the other day that said the average 2 bedroom condo in Long Beach, CA went for 300K
