If square footage is useless, what do people use to decide on which property
is better valued?

Location, neighborhood, appliances, cabinets, finishes, layout, number
of bedrooms and bathrooms, yard, landscaoing, the list goes on. You
sound like you have pretty mechanistic approach to value - what, no
decision making ability of your own? - to decide which house to buy
merely, or even mostly, from square footage.

And you sounded like someone who likes to jump to conclusion a lot, some
know-it-all, someone who doesn't have anythong better in life to do then
to pick a fight in a public forum.

When too many things a different, you obviously can't compare them with
just one criteria. But I presume people would do such a cost/sq-footage
comparison for houses in the same neighbourhood.

Shame! An open-ended question attracts such a close-minded response!!
