was decorated like this. Large homes; elaborate lighting — clearly an affluent neighborhood. (Zillow estimated value for this home? $2.1 million.) We spotted this area on our way to-and-from a restaurant in Hudson, Ohio (The Brew Kettle), from our hotel in Streetsboro, Ohio.

@rhoing Beautiful home and decorations. Often, they are just "normal" people. My husband's old boss had a house that was over 8000 sqft. He threw amazing Christmas parties with catered help and Santa arriving via helicopter. But he was a very down to earth person and he made his own wealth.
@danette I don’t dispute that “normal” people live in such houses, but what is their day-to-day use of the spaces in such homes? Do they have that “capacity” for 2-, 3-, 4-times a year parties?

@rhoing I’d probably wonder more about the homes that are 12,000 sf or more. I realize there are gyms, offices, theater rooms, maids quarters…Still, a number of rooms would be rarely used.
