I live in rural California, building depends on the County you live in. When I moved here in 1978, a building permit cost less than $1000, you needed 5 ac. and enough separation for a well and septic. Now it costs $30,000, still mostly the same requirements. It all comes down to population density. There are more and more rules the more people are crowded together. There is always someone who abuses the system, and rules and regulations proliferate afterward. Example: the guy who moved half a dozen old trailers on his place and collected rent from all the people living there. Sewage flowing down the hill, junk scattered everywhere. Then come the rules to prevent it from happening again. My County is close enough to a city, there are lots of commuters, the road capacity is filled with cars, and we get $25,000+ in building fees to pay for new roads prior to building a house. Nobody likes it but too much population = more fees, restrictions, etc. Without it the greed of a few make life miserable for the rest of us. Just my $0.02.
