Great video! My property law class used this as an introduction to adverse possession and it effectively showed how big an acre truly is. Thank you for your effort in this production.
Wow this video is perfect. Thx for making it. I’ve been trying to understand 14acres I inherited years ago from my grandpa. I went & looked at but there were so many trees I drove my ass back to the city where I live. I pay the taxes each year but never fully knew how big that was so..... 💙
I am a single celled organism and all though I am still kind of confused this is probably as close as I'm going to get to understanding this concept. Thank you for the informative and concise video.
Thank you so much, this was lovely! I'm thinking about buying some land in northern Brazil near the Amazon River. How many acres considered a farm-size property?
Excellent video. My family have 23.5 acres of land. We hope to build a few, houses on there in the very near future. And your video helped in solving a debate. LOL thanks again.
Oh my goodness-- thank you! As someone who has difficulty with spatial scales (to the extent of sometimes not knowing where walls are in relation to me... oof), this was very helpful!
We have 4 acres of tropical rainforest land on Hawaii island. We wish to “develop” these into fruit and nut orchards with gardens, integrate some bees, ducks, possibly pigs, and want to do this in such a way so as to not use chemical pesticides/herbicides and to let the land more or less support the animals needs, any thoughts on how many ducks an acre of tropical rainforest land can sustain without overgrazing or a lot of external inputs such as store bought animal feed
There’s land for sale in my area. It’s 1.45 acres and I wanna buy it but visually I don’t know how big a acre is. The land is covered by trees. Thanks for this video. I now can grasp how big an acre is. Hopefully nobody buys the land because the sign has been up for awhileee 😂
We have 5.4 acres in a rectangle that measures 608' x 400'. There's about a half acre wetland in one corner and about two and a half acres of bush in three areas of the property. The remaining part is taken up by the house and numerous outbuildings and one large open field of a bit over two acres It's been the perfect size for us, not overwhelming to take care of and leaves lots of room for other things to live. We tried having several horses on the place but eventually figured out that it worked best feed wise to just have two miniature horses. They had adequate food from spring til fall without having to buy any. There is still tons of room to add a large shop, or chicken coops, etc.
@@raydientrural Well, if any of your clients are considering making a move from Florida to Alberta the place will be going up for sale this spring. :) What's a tough sell around here is small (5-10 acres) raw acreages with no improvements on them. The reason for that is most of the time they are flat as a pancake bald ass prairie where you can see all four corner posts. Once you start adding up the costs of fencing it, putting in an all season access road, drilling a well, putting in a sewer system, running power, building a house and then planting a treeline for a windbreak and waiting 20 years for it to grow, it's no real surprise they stay on the market for a long time.
This question may not be something you can answer but I will post it here anyway. A surveyor will often survey land in tracks, are these tracks of land 66 feet wide by 660 feet long or does this mean something else?
Thank You! Question: Are these lots supposed to be marked with dividing lines when purchased so you can fence the property? It's always hard to determine what you're buying without a fence to outline...
Thanks, I do have a question. I am trying to figure out what I really need to have a 2,500 sq feet Dog Board and Train Facility and 2 outside fenced in training areas. What will fit on a 0.5 acres lot? I don't want to get more land then what I need. Thanks for any help.
My fiancée and I just bought property in pa. The problem we have is two neighbors out back are using a partial as their split driveway. We don't know what the previous land owner had in conjunction with them but we would like to gain possession of said property but not by mean measures until it has to go that way. What can be done? It's 40' x 225' being used by them that belongs to us per tax codes
Thank you for this video..trying to learn more about land etc as i plan in a few years to hopefully have a pig sanctuary. its hard times for me as im terrible with numbers but am determined,. thank you for the visualizations.
Thank you. I'm interested in knowing how many acres I should look for, if I don't want to see any neighbors from a house centrally located on the property. I know some properties are more densely wooded than others, but, in general... someone that doesn't want to hear or see their neighbors... what's the smallest acreage do you recommend? Thanks
as a kid i was told a acre of land is a little more than you want to mow by hand.mowers have changed how hi the grass is. how much dog poop apples hills trees.i love your answer better now i know .thank you
I have retired and I'm looking for I guess only one acre where I can put me a nice home or in there and some trees and maybe a nice Garden. Tell me how much would an acre be in Plainfield Indiana are closed in that area.. Good land for growing food.
Awesome and thank you for sharing. I was also looking to see is there a way someone can view the acre from the sky (using a drone) or showing (walk or driving) to each property line.
thank you for this video, looking to buy 9.15 acres for 10,000 is that a good deal? trying to put three homes into it with a central pond area is each house will be about 2000 sq ft. is this ample seperate into three internal properties or should I go with something smaller?
Is acreage on a hill measured topographic or "birds eye" what I mean is that is it 214 ft Sq absolutely or measured at the ground including rise or fall of land
You can have a large house tank n barn on two acres n have plenty of room I grew up on 5acres but we only used less than an acre of it last year my dad finally started clearing it off literally 3/4 more house can be put on there
My family owns 24 acres in mexico. Currently renting it out but I would love for my family to crop and make money. None of us have that skill, just have the land
I am trying to find out what the rules are when it comes down to the property line when clearing and you have timber straddling the property lines. I seem to recall from back when I was working for a logging outfit that if you took one out that was more on the other property line you left one on your side for the other owner and it was an UN-written but I am not clear on it and thought I had better research it now that I realize my memory lies to me like my ex-wife nowadays and I have slept since then to boot, I mainly want to keep it straight as possible and avoid conflict and so far it has been a crap shoot when looking for the protocol on this topic.
Wow, Thanks Brother.. Being from the city I had no idea, now that 10 acres is looking good😄 not 20 though because cows, horses etc..yeah I have no clue😕😒😂😊👍
RUclips videos are seen all over the world, including Continental Europe. The explanation of how big an acre is would have been perfect if you had thought of our metric system!
Finally! The only reasonable video that actually answers this question and puts it into the proper perspective. Thanks Jason!!!
Completely agree.
Yes
It's also the only video on the subject that is less than 2 minutes long.
100%. Just show me! Jason showed me. Thanks Jason!
How many of you are here because of that OTHER how big is an acre video (I.e. cringey football field 4 min I sec video)?
Ty Queen me haha
Dude that shit was hella funny
Ty Queen right
Me😂
hahahaha yes!!!!!
ThNKS, I just inherited 3 acres of land and had a hard time picturing what that looks like.
good explanation , straight down to the point thank you
very informative i had to try 5 videos to finally find a good visual representation and explanation. very well done thank you
Jeremiah Holmes thats exactly what I said.lol
Me too
Great video! My property law class used this as an introduction to adverse possession and it effectively showed how big an acre truly is. Thank you for your effort in this production.
Thanks for posting that! Very helpful to visualize.
I just bought 36.68 acres next to a nice sized lake in Colorado today. This video and the wine I'm drinking has me feeling like the king of the world.
Share?
36+ is a solid chunk. We live on 29.42 and the property feels huge . Enjoy that brother !!
Finally,..just what I was looking for. A quick no-nonsense very well explained video of what an acre of land looks like. Thanks.
Straight to the point! Orally and visually informative. I LOVE IT!
I've been outside working all day and now I have two achers
McFlySwatter 😂
😹😹
Thank you for the simplicity.
Exactly what I wanted visuals. Thank you so much.
What a great video short and to the point. This guy right here knows what he's talking about and thank him for his video
Yeah, we all know that it's as big as a football field, but you actually show how big it is. Thank you so much.
Lord, thank heavens. 😒
Tour video is more helpful than ALL of the rest. And it is also just the same more simpler.
Finally a very informative video, I don't count the number of videos I tried to picture the size of an acre. Thank you !
Well worth watching...
Clear, concise & to the point.
Thx you vm Jason 👍
Wish you'd kill the music though.
This was very helpful, I'm looking to start a Homestead soon
THANK YOU! Finally someone created the perfect visual and mathematical representation!
Thank you SO MUCH for getting straight to the point and providing various visual aids to help with comprehension!
Exactly what I was looking for...images of acres sizes. Thank You.
That's what I needed, a visual representation. So, theoretically, I need 10 acres. Now I can put a number to it. Thanks.
Wow this video is perfect. Thx for making it. I’ve been trying to understand 14acres I inherited years ago from my grandpa. I went & looked at but there were so many trees I drove my ass back to the city where I live. I pay the taxes each year but never fully knew how big that was so..... 💙
Thank you. I been trying to visual it for a while now. So I definitely need 2 acres.
I am a single celled organism and all though I am still kind of confused this is probably as close as I'm going to get to understanding this concept. Thank you for the informative and concise video.
This video is perfect! Now I know approximately how many acres I want. 3-5 seems about right for me
Thank you so much, this was lovely! I'm thinking about buying some land in northern Brazil near the Amazon River. How many acres considered a farm-size property?
Excellent video. My family have 23.5 acres of land. We hope to build a few, houses on there in the very near future. And your video helped in solving a debate. LOL thanks again.
Excellent description. Thank you.
This suburban girl thanks you. Clear and concise. Appreciated it.
Oh my goodness-- thank you!

Did you get to buy that land?
So did you bought it ?

Nicely done! Thanks for making this so clear. I thought an acre was 66' x 660' or does that work out the way as your measurements?
This question may not be something you can answer but I will post it here anyway. A surveyor will often survey land in tracks, are these tracks of land 66 feet wide by 660 feet long or does this mean something else?
Thank You! Question: Are these lots supposed to be marked with dividing lines when purchased so you can fence the property? It's always hard to determine what you're buying without a fence to outline...
Best to hire a surveyor!
Thank you sir for good explanation...
But can i please know that one acre is how many kms(not sq kms)??.
Thank you have been pondering on it for a while. U answered it.
Thanks, I do have a question. I am trying to figure out what I really need to have a 2,500 sq feet Dog Board and Train Facility and 2 outside fenced in training areas. What will fit on a 0.5 acres lot? I don't want to get more land then what I need. Thanks for any help.
wow .. thank you so very much, you made it real simple!..
Wow. This is a cool video. 208 ft sq was what no one told me so far.

Thank you for a great explanation.
Love this so much. Thanks a lot mate for this awesome, succinct and illustrative explanation.
Got a question, I do...How many trees are in an acre? Use the trees in the video for our reference Please. Thank you Todd
dunno how this got in my feed, but good luck on your channel man.
Thank you. I'm interested in knowing how many acres I should look for, if I don't want to see any neighbors from a house centrally located on the property. I know some properties are more densely wooded than others, but, in general... someone that doesn't want to hear or see their neighbors... what's the smallest acreage do you recommend? Thanks
Thanks for posting.😃
Now I have to find me 20 acres of land!
as a kid i was told a acre of land is a little more than you want to mow by hand.mowers have changed how hi the grass is. how much dog poop apples hills trees.i love your answer better now i know .thank you
Very good explanation!!!
Thank you very much!!!
GOD bless you!!!
Very intresting love the way explanation was instant thanks very much. .....
So the More acres you have he smaller it expands in 1 direction right
I’m planning on buying 2 acres of land zone R2 in Oregon... what do you think?
I have a very simple question, I'm still young. Do you think investing in land in rural parts of America is a good investment?
They're not making any more of it. Yes
How about a drones eye view with an superimposed yellow lines over the one acre with one or two people on the land?
What a neat video. Very memorable.
I have retired and I'm looking for I guess only one acre where I can put me a nice home or in there and some trees and maybe a nice Garden. Tell me how much would an acre be in Plainfield Indiana are closed in that area.. Good land for growing food.
Is 13.33 acres big enough for a farm/home stead life style? Is that sufficient space for animals?
Edit: sorry I know I am very late to comment.
Awesome, verya easy to understand
Im just started to be a meliponiculture (stingless bee keeper).. my father just about to buy 1.6 acres.. and now i can see how big it is..
Awesome and thank you for sharing. I was also looking to see is there a way someone can view the acre from the sky (using a drone) or showing (walk or driving) to each property line.
Thanks , good job.
Thank you this was very helpful and informative 👍👍
Hello I just bought a house. It is 8767 feel. How much is that in acreage?
Where i am from local people's unit for land area is "square". Do you know how big say 2 squares of land is?
This was really helpful
I like the visual ideas you provide at the end
can you put a double wide modular home with a built n garage on acre of land
Thank you. That really does help provide perspective.
thank you. good explanation
thank you for this video, looking to buy 9.15 acres for 10,000 is that a good deal? trying to put three homes into it with a central pond area is each house will be about 2000 sq ft. is this ample seperate into three internal properties or should I go with something smaller?
Is acreage on a hill measured topographic or "birds eye" what I mean is that is it 214 ft Sq absolutely or measured at the ground including rise or fall of land

This information blew my mind, thank you
Thank you ...... finally someone who knew :-)

Thank you for helping me visualize better.
Thanks I sure learned something new
we the people, love you jason
Thank you. Very easy to understand.
thank you sir, you answered such a simple question 😊
My family owns 24 acres in mexico. Currently renting it out but I would love for my family to crop and make money. None of us have that skill, just have the land
Perfect. Thanks for the visual math!
How large is 33,976 square ft in land size?
Thanks for the explanation! Quick question, what's the average cost for an acre of land?
😂
I am trying to find out what the rules are when it comes down to the property line when clearing and you have timber straddling the property lines. I seem to recall from back when I was working for a logging outfit that if you took one out that was more on the other property line you left one on your side for the other owner and it was an UN-written but I am not clear on it and thought I had better research it now that I realize my memory lies to me like my ex-wife nowadays and I have slept since then to boot, I mainly want to keep it straight as possible and avoid conflict and so far it has been a crap shoot when looking for the protocol on this topic.
Wow, Thanks Brother.. Being from the city I had no idea, now that 10 acres is looking good😄 not 20 though because cows, horses etc..yeah I have no clue😕😒😂😊👍
What does 0.40 mean? Is that about a 1/2 acre
RUclips videos are seen all over the world, including Continental Europe. The explanation of how big an acre is would have been perfect if you had thought of our metric system!
Great video 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
I always wanted to know how big one Acer is its pretty good for me, but 6 acres its better more of a privacy. thank you for the info.
How many archers will you need for a small farm a few animals like chickens and a couple of horses and a small home ? Approximately.
It depends on how many arrows you have for the archers...and what you're shooting at ? flags? Clout archery?
Thank you! well explained! :)
