I was born into a house in the 70’s that was massive. Sure it was dilapidated but there were big houses. Watch caddy shack and look at the house the main character lives in that you see at the start of the movie.

I fully agree with the point but is “a erage” the right metric? I also have to imagine even the average house is much larger than in 1970.

Average can mean so many things. A lot of people want it to be synonymous with mean as a measure of central tendency, but there’s a reason data people use mean. It avoids folk definitions meaning typical or expected. In those senses it can also be synonymous with modal values or an area around the median etc. It’s not a precise word.
