Percentage and/or Number of Players owning Personal Large House/ Mansion

Does it exist like from official or unofficial census?

Just my curiousity (is that even a word) about the Gil that single players own.

i doubt it exists but it shouldn't take long for you to do that tally on your own server. you can go to each housing zone and count them all in under 15 minutes.

but it won't tell you how much gil people have. i know a bunch of people that can afford L houses who don't have them.

Well lets do the math, there is 30 houses per ward, 16 wards per city and 3 cities, so there is 1440 house per server. And since there is 64 servers, there is 92,160 total houses and last i heard SE told us there are 5 million "registered users". So if we do the math, there is .018432 of housing available for all the player base, lets even it out to .01 to account for the Free Company housing, so about 1% of the "registered users" have access to housing. But honestly out of the 5 million registered users probably about 1 million are still active I'm guessing so probably about 5% of the players have access to housing.

Personally I spent about 50 mil or so on my small housing plot, mostly due to rare furniture and what not. And I don't even craft to make gil, I make all my gil from selling random stuff I get from gathering, quests, dailies and retainers.

Please note this is just by my estimate, not sure how correct it is.

Yes I get you but can only count my own server not all servers which was my main question,

And was not my point to know how much gil people have nowaday, just curiousity of players owning large house, as many people who can own large house nowaday some only got enough gil to afford it recently, and Yoshi P mentioned that housing pricing will depend on server economy and my bet when they expand it housing price will increase many times over prices at intorduction of personal housing.

As you can see in HW gil owning is easier than pre-HW where there is much less people that can own said size house.

Your reply is about general housing.

Please re-read my thread.

And I like your math and your signature.
