Dunno about the US, but drive in movie theatres take up a lot of land. They got sold off for residential housing and the owners made a packet.
Land is much cheaper here from what I can tell. 16 years ago, I bought a 4 bedroom house on 1 acre for $155k. I’m 30 minutes from downtown Dallas.
Youve just got more of it, 16 years ago i bought 13 acres with a house on it 25 minutes from downtown Auckland for $660K,,,
How do we have more land? We have 10 times the population of Australia and maybe 30% more land? I guess we do have more usable land away from the coast. We have good water and forests and energy production in the deserts. A lot of people avoid the big cities here. Life is less hectic and people are nicer in the country.

I think tax rates contribute to inflation. High tax states have higher prices for everything, especially real estate. A house like my house 30 minutes outside of San Francisco, CA would cost $1M. It appraises here for around $290k right now. Prices have been going up because of all of the Californians fleeing high taxes and buying real estate here.

Youd fit about 300 NZ's into Americas land mass lol

Yes, and something should be done about it! We have The Ghan that runs from Adelaide to Darwin and I watched the 3 hour movie which I posted a link to here, somewhere, and there ARE green bits and trees and rivers and ROADS out there. It is NOT like the Sahara. We could "do something" if we really wanted to ... build something out there that would create work ... open up the "interior" ... nah, Aussies are too "laid back" they all want to live near the seaside. Geeze. :b

Kinda. 4 days til I stop rubbing this junk into raw skin. Healing takes awhile apparently (longer than the treatment) so I might still be glowing in the dark and terrifying the neighbours and small children for some time yet.

I need to see the Dermo on Friday and will do some shopping whilst I am out. I expect a stampede in the supermarket but the good news is that I might get to be first in line at the checkout if everyone moves 10 paces away from me lol.
