It doesn’t even have to be half, a 25% dip in most neighborhoods would immediately open up affordability for most of the country. That’s even less than the accrued bubble in the past 5 years.
Our biggest problem is we’re letting smaller towns die out when states could easily be incentivizing their growth. That’s a massive amount of potential homes for businesses and growth that doesn’t exist because boomers in cities are terrified of competition in pricing. Just like boomers pulled the ladder up behind them for jobs, it’s all such a joke anymore.
They've absolutely driven everyone to cities even if opportunities were there not to. I saw this big in the corporate world when everything was going flawlessly during Covid shutdowns, everyone working from home (which would give them flexibility on where to live), then all of a sudden a switch flipped and oh yeah by the way we need everyone in person again.
I know a handful of people, friends and kids of friends etc. from small towns. A couple of the younger ones I've known since they were elementary school age and in mid 20s now. They've done really well, but they were forced to leave. The type of good family people that would be totally happy staying in their hometown, raising their own kids there, etc. The kind of people we here would generally like. There's just zero jobs for them. Their parents jobs were already dead or dying as it was. They are forced to at least get close to a city.
Yep, one of the biggest lies of the past century was that there were no businesses attracted to small towns. State governments both republican and democrat did everything in their power to kill towns. In this day and age it’s easier to build up medium sized towns or even start new ones from scratch, it never happens because cities lose their shit every time a state offers anything aside from chemical dumping grounds to towns.

All part of the plan.
Do you remember Pearl Jam's 'Do the Evolution' music video? Do you remember the end of that video where they had all the humans corralled into their 'smart cities'? And then the autonomous drones nuked every city across the planet entirely?
That's what their plans are (eventually)/ Remove people from the rural (out of surveillance), concentrate them in the cities, and then nuke em' (to reduce 'carbon' of course).
Meanwhile, there are lots o smaller towns in the South that are being turned into actual company towns, while The Powers That Be fight against them. Abbeville, Alabama is Yellawood's headquarters, and Bluffton, Georgia is becoming White Oak Pastures' company town.

Or pollution-generating water-guzzling data centers...but only after they pay off the local mayor.

*Yes, I know I'm might be going a bit hyperbole, but these faggots like to flash their intentions in your face before doing the deed.
A big reason homes are so expensive is the loan industry. Low interest rates lead to people being able to borrow more and this drives up home prices.
