Yep, add that 40k to the utility hookup costs and the governmental
fees and then the cost of building the structures and the amenities
that accompany. Of course, high prices are the fault of greedy
Realtors; everyone is agreed.

Even at that price that is about .7 acre per house. Just over 6000 sq. ft. per lot and that is not counting paved streets or any space given over to playgrounds, schools, or retail.

It is not entirely the greedy RE agents, there are the people who think that it is a good investment to buy desert houses at a time of increasing energy costs, declining water availability, and rising temperatures.
