They keep picking exceptions and not the overwhelming norms on average.

Extremely expensive real estate skews those averages tremendously. First-time home buyers aren't buying the averages anyway. Most purchase "starter" homes, as they should.

This is a Baton Rouge based-board, so maybe our views are skewed a litte. From a quick Zillow search, you can have your pick of cute little 3/2's between 200k-250k all day long.

Is this "less" house than 5 years ago? Yes. Are they still viable options for living? Definitely. And people are absolutely getting mortgages.
