Not in Southern California. Even in poor communities, the median home
price is around $500K. That just reflects the price of those homes that
were sold within the last accounting period (month?), but is useful for
comparison purposes.
Check www.zillow.com for home prices. Ours, a dump 1/4 mile from the
freweay on-ramp, is estimated at $500K. My son's house, an ordinary
3-br 1200SF house, is now worth more than double the $250K he paid for
it in 2000.
