Quoting Ruth Hanschka to Michael Loo <=-
the average house in Detroit is worth 60K
Way up from the 2008 crash but still a very depressed market.
RH That same house in Boston would be 300K, is my guess.
More like 4 or 5, but who's counting.
I have quick and easy access to housing stats throughout North
America. The median price in Boston is $585,000.
tack another 100 thou on the front in San Francisco.
You underestimate: the median price is currently $1.3M.
Your national average cost to build is $150 psf. The rest is land
value which is based on location desirability more than actual
development costs. In other words people prefer to live in San
Francisco than Detroit for some reason, given a choice.
Something else from there that's pretty rich ...

Title: Crab Cioppino
Categories: Crab, Clams, Mussels, Stews, American
Yield: 4 Servings
2 Whole live crabs
2 oz Olive oil
3 Cloves crushed fresh garlic
1 oz Crab butter (roe)
1/4 ts Crushed red pepper
3 oz White wine
8 Prawns

2 Fresh crushed tomatoes;
(seedless)
1/4 oz Chopped fresh parsley
Salt and pepper to taste
4 ts Chopped fresh onions
12 oz Tomato sauce
Crack the crab leaving the legs and body together. Set aside. In a
4-quart kettle or stock pot, heat the olive oil and saute the
onions until clear. Add the garlic and simmer until light brown.
Add crab butter and fry lightly. Next, add the wine to keep the
butter and garlic from burning. Add tomatoes, tomato sauce, broth,
salt and pepper, then add the crab. Cover the kettle and steam in
low heat for about 12 minutes. Add prawns, clams and mussels two
minutes before serving. Serve in a bowl and sprinkle the cioppino
with fresh parsley.
