I feel like DC suburbs are ~30% cheaper per square foot and have more variance in terms of quality. More older and more newer stuff. All of this is anecdotal of course.
The dc area, especially nova, had a lot of empty space to fill. Disney even considered adding another Disneyland in loudoun a generation ago. It was the same with north jersey in the 50s, my dad grew up on a farm.
The value of my nova house utterly collapsed due to trumps layoffs. The entire region is a giant grift.
Is the price and rent data per square foot or per housing unit? I feel New York and especially Manhattan don’t pop out in these charts the way that they should, particularly if the former measurement were used?
Thanks for the comment Sachit. We're basically in due diligence/discovery mode and in the process of building out dataframes and iterating from there. Stay tuned!
giving me more to read and its 9 pm
Your welcome
Smart idea starting with laying down a common starting point. All too often now days, especially on social media, people tend to talk past each other!
Looking forward to the next post on the historical trend of southern housing prices. I think it’s a growing region with huge potential
Glad you enjoyed it!
Any chance you could get all the city-level maps you made assembled in one place?
Not as of now! But if you have any city you would like to see feel free to ask.
What difference did you notice moving to DC from the Bay Area?
