They really need to be. The functionality of a house for an FC is much greater than for a personal, both in literal in game functions (workshop, place for the FC to congregate) and soft ones (showing that you're serious about your FC). Housing was originally designed for FCs and only released to individuals during a time when there were legions of unsold houses rotting away.

On top of this, the "neighborhood feel" only really works in FC neighborhoods. 30 random gamers will not create a neighborhood. 30 random FCs will. I see and interact with my neighbors all the time at my FC house. I think I've spoken two words to someone in my personal ward once.
