As mentioned several times on the San Carlos Blog, do not put too much emphasis on price per square foot.  This component has more relevance in the commercial world of real estate, however, when the averages are examined the price per square foot can paint a reasonable picture of the general trends of a particular market.  The numbers above are in line with expectations.  The flatlands of San Carlos, Howard Park and White Oaks, tend to be the most demanding in terms of the ratio of price to the size of houses.
