Tell me you’re from the US without telling me you’re from the US. In Europe a 100 year old house isn’t uncommon and isn’t even close to needing to be demolished.

You're not wrong, but the houses you're referencing probably weren't prefab.

Yeah, 60-80 years is average for the survival of a wooden framed house if it is taken care of. Yes some will last till 200, but for every 1 that does, hundreds have been torn down.

US also has houses that old, mostly on the East Coast.
