#3 - Home prices. That might seem cheap for us, but definitely not for most people back in the 1950's. $7,900 in 1950's is equivalent to $103,190 in today dollars.
In the early 1960s, an annual salary of $3500/year was considered middle class. I make more than that per week and am considered doing ok. We also don't know if that's the price of a house on the land or the price of a kit in a catalog. Mail order houses were big back then. But they weren't constructed. You just got the materials shipped to you.
My dad made around 5k a year in the 50s (and he had a BA), which is a little over $400 a month before taxes, plus there were 3 kids (I came in 1960 making 4), my mom did not work, and we only had one car. Part of past affordability is how people lived. Cooking from scratch, mom repaired our clothes, packed school lunches, no vacations other than car trips to see relatives, no AC... Life was very different. People dont want to live like that anymore. We lived in a tiny 3 bdrm 1 ba house, six of us in there in maybe 900 sq ft. Thats how everyone lived in those giant post war neighborhoods of little houses.
