    I thought it worked well, but these homes aren’t “typical,” they are on the higher end. Most of them looked like million dollar+ homes, though I recognize many would be cheaper depending on the location.

      They’re typical of homes that get photographed

      That was my first thought. Maybe all the houses I’ve seen around the states I have lived are waaaay smaller than typical but these seem like humongous super nice houses for the most part. Easily million dollar houses in most of these cities. Course nowadays I guess that’s not saying much.

      In the rural southeast, those are more like 300,000

      • North Carolina’s IS a typical house, but the setup is all wrong and it’s subtle enough that I’m not sure you’d really notice it on the street unless you stopped to think. That specific style is one of the…cut-and-paste ones, if that makes sense? You’ll see that exact same house everywhere, down to the floorplan, but really only in the low/mid-tier areas, on a smaller plot and sitting closer to the road.

      Meanwhile, the yard it’s on is WAY too big for that association and is really meant for something fancier and middle-class. You can have a lawn or you can have that house, but you wouldn’t have both. And I have no idea what that chair next to the sidewalk is doing there. I can and have seen toilets there before I’ve seen a chair that’s apparently meant to be used to greet strangers on the sidewalk.

      • Virginia’s seems to have leaned hard into the “historical plantation house” thing, but it’s believable. Definitely higher end in my experience, yes. Kinda missing the fancy victorian vergeboard trim, though. That whole gingerbread house thing? Virginia and Georgia both seem to love that shit in the older cities, regardless of income.

      • Which brings me to Georgia, and I’m not really super sure what’s going on there. Do houses somewhere look like this? It got that very specific Southern Blue down, but it feels like it mixed up the fancier stone facade of suburban housing with the brightly-colored style that seemed to be common in the extremely poor areas. The effect is…confusing.

      • What little I saw in photos of Nevada seem to check out, and I’m not aware that the buddy I had there was exactly rich or he wouldn’t have been such a fuckup. So that…may be accurate??

      • The typical home in California is a tent.

    I couldn’t find Chicago (3rd largest city in the States) or Illinois for that matter. The title is misleading.

    Scrolled to the bottom to find Wisconsin and it wasn’t there. Odd choice to alphabetize by city and state names mixed together. I don’t usually look in the M’s for Milwaukee to find Wisconsin.

    Neat concept, but I have been through so many neighborhoods and the home generated for Minnesota doesn’t really seem to match up with reality.

    Most unbelievable part: Texas has a US flag but no Texas flag.

      So was I staying in the wrong part of Texas? Moving there really made me begin to consider how the climate affects a region’s architecture, and I don’t believe I ever once saw a building with a gable roof the whole year and a half I was there. You see them very commonly in NC (the AI image is nearly spot on, and almost looks like the house I was born in), but in TX there is no snow, so they don’t have to plan around the risk of the roof collapsing under the weight. Every one of them as far as the eye could see was pancake flat.

      (I also keep forgetting about the flag thing, which is VERY real and sometimes ridiculous. I was very glad to know what state I was in at all times while getting the groceries)

    California is pretty spot on. I’d say same with Arizona and Las Vegas.

      I have only seen houses like that in California in smaller coastal towns, not cities or in suburbia.

      I’ve seen whole neighborhoods like the Arizona house in California. Very popular tract style in the late 90s early 2000s. A row of houses across from mine all renod to look like that.

    The Maryland ones, both generic “Maryland” as well as the Baltimore specific one, those seem really accurate.

    They kinda have a Thomas Kinkade feel to me. And I don’t mean that in a good way.

    Close for Vermont, except it wouldn’t be so well maintained and it needs a few witch windows.
