How does this even accurately reflect inflation though?
In the 60's a family of 4 was happy with 1200sqft, 3 bedrooms one bathroom to be average.
Nowadays that same family wants 2200 sqft 5br + fully developed basement, 3 bathrooms with double vanities in each, 80sqft dedicated to a jetted tub that she uses twice a year, a toilet to be used only by guests that come over 3 days year, along with their leased BMW and Audi.
