Perhaps the question isn't where but when.

40 years ago my parents were able to buy a large modern home for about 3 times times one of their salaries. For young people today it is more like 6 - 10 times the combined salaries of two people.

Where did your parents live? In mid-west or in suburbs or in Manhattan? Where are young people living today and are those similar locations as their parents?
