10,890 ft^2 = 1/4 acre, just in case you were wondering.

That did strike me as odd that 3 states all “tied” with that number.

(Still confused how lots in NY are larger than Iowa, SD, and Utah though…)

I'm assuming lot size is only for homes and many people in NYC don't own a house. Rural NY has some pretty large lots.

Also there’s electricity and well access pretty much even in the most rural spots. Grew up in Upstate NY on 50 acres and I didn’t really have a large property compared to others. Now I live in AZ on a 1/2 acre and if I wanted a similar sized lot I would be in the desert hauling water and living off grid or spending $$$ on prime property.
