Did some math:
1944: New House = 1.4x yearly income
2023: New House = 5.3x *median* household income
(2023 New US house $427,400, Median US individual income $80,610)
Then got interested & found some more data and graphed it (starting 1984, note that it's sales price, not new house, but trend is clear)
