That sucks. It would be nice to have the extra space of a basement but they don't make them around here.

You don't have a basement? Weird!

At least we wouldn't have to worry about flooding.

Or the house falling into a hole during an earthquake.

Slab on grade mostly in Cal. Unless you like to do more work like @Aeroknow lol.

No basements in Cali. Too nice to live underground here

Where do you put your hvac and hot water heaters?

That's so bizarre!

Hot water heater goes in the garage along with central heating and air conditioning. We use AC when it gets hot BTW.

I used to work HVAC and here in CA they will put them on the ground in the back of the house or up on the roof. Very common on the roof and especially a pain in the ass with fancy tiles you cant walk on. On the roof with too much of a angle, they have to build a small angle iron stand to stand/sit on while working. No basements here in CA. They sound dope tho. Water heaters are usually in the garage and if they dont have one then its put inside a closet in a main hallway.

I'd love to have a garage in the winter. Growing wouldn't be an option for me if we didn't have a basement. Your bottom floor must be freezing on bare feet on cold days.

The one we had in S’vale had perimeter with an utterly inadequate crawlspace.

Our old house in So Cal had a raised foundation, my daughters house does also. I think they went to slabs on newer houses because it was less labor intensive, cheaper, and quicker.

Do they do any split entry styles there, with like 4' below grade, like this? This is a popular style around here because your basement has large windows...Typically they do a family room and bath on the lower level, with the garage, then everything else up...It utilizes every square inch of the house...but the downside is stairs! Even at the entry point!!
