    keeps wood dry during winter

    Basically, in Australia, we do not need them, pubs have them to keep the beer cold, but i have only ever seen one house locally with a traditional basement

    But as a few have said, the basement is about putting the foundations low enough not to be interfered with when the ground freezes over during a cold winter
    I remember seeing a guy building his games room in Minnesota, the foundations were very deep

    Quoted from StoneyCreek:

    sweet lineup. I love seeing collections grouped by theme.

    It is also what people are used to
    Basements are not under every house in the USA, I don't think they are common in Florida

    Quoted from punkin:

    1/4 is standard in city suburbs here (or was when i was a kid), and 1/2 was the local doctors place.

    1/4 acre is 1011m2
    most city blocks for sale are about 400-500m2, at about $1000 per m2
