      Yeah, same here in Argentina. In my province town, which is the core region even, a million will make for a gigantic rich style house and massive land plot. In the big cities exclusive neighborhoods it won't give much than a small apartment, just fancy and expensive materials.
      It just depends where it is. The higher the population density by district the higher the demand, so the limited space offer goes up.

Where I live in the Bay Area, a typical 2-bedroom condo is about $1.2 million and a single family home is around $1.7-1.8 million to an upwards of $2.7 million if you don't count luxury homes which are way more expensive (but also virtually nonexistent).

    Small Korean apartments are definitely more comparable to New York style apartments. And as a southerner, like she said, our homes cost less but come with WAY more. I think it's because states like NY and Cali are more sought after.

      It depends where u are in NY. Most ppl say NY but they really are thinking of NYC only. Upstate NY there are more houses with front AND backyards then Apts. The COL is significantly less the further upstate you go. The trade off of course is that there are less jobs and commerce areas.
      In NYC and areas around it ppl are paying ridiculous amounts of rent even if they live in a box just to be proxy to higher paying jobs & entertainment areas.

    Shannon is definitely right, it really depends on the state here in the US, but also whether it's in a city or more rural area...in cities (especially the major cities like LA and New York) you will pay more for less, whereas in smaller towns you pay less for more...$1,000,000 will buy you either a nice(but not HUGE) apartment in a city or a small mansion in the country(rural area)...I imagine it's similar everywhere in the world that the cost of living is higher in the city and lower in the more rural areas

    In most locations in America outside of the international cities (New York, Los Angeles, Chicago, Boston, Washington, DC, etc.) $1 million will buy a mind blowing property. That property will come with a minimum 4,000 sq. ft. house and possibly a crazy-large plot of land depending on what the buyer desires. The $1 million house in the majority of America is way bigger than most people need or can handle. But in the international cities like those mentioned above, $1 million will still buy homes with respectable interior space. It just won't buy much in the super exclusive areas. I think it's the same around the world. If I spend $1 million on a house in a place where the average home value is $200,00 I'm going to get a castle. But if I spend $1 million in a place where the average home value is $5 million, I'm going to get something the size of other families' doghouses! So let's keep this all in perspective! 😄

    In the mid-90's my parents bought a very large home (5600 square feet / 550 m^2 ) in the suburbs of Salt Lake City for a price of $244,000. 1/3 acre lot, 6 bedrooms, 3 bathrooms. The idea was that it be large enough that all of their kids and grandkids could come stay there during get-togethers without anyone needing a hotel. We all scattered all over the world, though, so I don't think we've ever actually all stayed there. Anyway, it's a nice enough home, but I don't think it's as nice as the 1st home shown in the video, but according to Zillow (I know, they always estimate high) it's still worth well over $1 million now. And this is in a small metro area of only about 1.3 million people. I can't imagine what it must be like in larger cities.

To buy a townhouse in my neighborhood would cost at least $2.5million for a small one that needs work and in upwards of around $4million+ for a decent one. $4million could buy you a large home, large plot of land, and even a “compound” in the more rural northern part of New York State… the mountains…

    As far as real estate prices go, it's all about the demand for the land, and how much land is available. If you're in an urban, developed city with limited land space, your money is not going to buy a lot of a house. But if you go out of the urban, developed city into another that is less built-up, where real estate generally expands horizontally instead of vertically, a bit of money will buy you a lot of a house. When a city can expand sideways, that means it has a lot of land such that even with some degree of demand for land, real estate prices there will still be fairly reasonable. But if a city can only build up and not sideways (either land scarce or restricted by borders, infrastructure etc), and there's demand for homes, commercial, retail and industrial buildings, then development costs will only go up causing housing prices to skyrocket. Look at Hong Kong, Singapore, Tokyo......housing prices in those popular cities are crazy high. NY, LA, Seoul, HK, Singapore, Tokyo......all these cities have the same conditions that cause property prices to be so high.

There's actually a considerable exodus of people out of California into Texas that has been going on for several years now, and we're... less than excited about it because we don't want the cost of living driven up.
