You can't on the one hand deride people for spending past what they can afford, and on the other hand chastise people for living in "sprawl".

There are many inner city houses for less that $400,000 but you are right, it depends on the size of your house... what your priorities are. I choose to live in a smaller house where I can bike to work in 10 minutes or walk to work in 40 minutes. Walk to the grocery store or plenty of nice restaurants. For me a long commute would be torture.
