How many 1500 sq ft houses can you get on 1 acre?

Answer 1

This is weird. We have to assume that the walls have zero thickness, so that the

base of the walls doesn't take up any of the real estate.

(1 acre) x (43,560 square ft per acre) / (1,500 square ft per house) = 29.04 houses.

That means 29 houses, with 60 square ft left over.

Each house gets 2.069 square ft to use for a lawn or a driveway, whichever they prefer.
