Is this Palo alto a high SES suburb? Looks over price for 7 million. In USA houses are cheaper. 7 million can buy acres of land not just 1 house. But not in New York
palo alto has being a very high ses suburb before suckerberg bought 6.9 homes, tore them all down, and rebuilt into a mansion with high walls surrounding what once were subdivided lots. even a lousy fixer upper 1 bedroom 1 bath house of 690 sqft (but sitting on 6900 sqft of land) built in 1969 could sell for us$2.69m 6.9 years ago. now it sells for us$4.69m. even east palo alto which is notorious like east oakland for drug trafficking and gangbangers killing each other is being gentrified, and the median home price in murder town is now reaching us$1m.

EAST PALO ALTO, Calif. (KGO) --
What was once the murder capital of the U.S. is now a town selling multi-million dollar homes - East Palo Alto.

Reggie Page was born and raised in East Palo Alto, or EPA, as natives call it. "Lots of bodies, lots of body counts," he remembers. "It was a warzone."

Tiny East Palo Alto, which is 2.5 square miles, used to have lots of poverty and crime - 42 murders in 1992 alone.

This happened in a town of only 25,000 people.

Close to Google and Facebook, it also reaped the benefits of the booming Silicon Valley. Amazon opened a branch here and IKEA and other big retailers set up shop.

"Bringing jobs into the area and helping clean up the area provided a big boom to the area," said East Palo Alto shopper Mark Stem.

Jim Rogers is in real estate. "East Palo Alto is well located on the Peninsula. Location, location, location," he said.

The median price of a home here is now close to $1 million.
