    I grew up in a bad neighborhood. My parents house cost them 20k in 1980.

    It sold for 450k in 2001. The original house is still there, a postwar concrete prefab with zero wall insulation capacity that freezes and weeps in winter and broils in summer, but the yard is looong gone with a subdivision.

    The RENT on that fucking house is now more per year than my parents paid to own it. Without the yard.

    Shit is broken
