My FIL lives in one in Lincoln, NE that's okay thanks to two okay places to eat that he could walk two blocks to get to but doesn't.
Some of them go too far and turn too Stepford, though.

Yeah, we have houses dating back to the 1870s (I know - not that old). Architecturally, there really is no pattern. Mid-century next to an old tudor next to a craftsman next to a cape cod next to a bungalow next to a colonial, etc. The smaller ranches are getting gobbled up though. In 20 years it's probably going to look much different, but by then I'll be living in the english countryside.
