How many generations does it take before someone counts as a "real american"? Or is your "foreign-born" designation hiding that it was always about skin color all along?

How is that statistic relevant to anything?

> 19% of California houses were owned by investors, ranking No. 36 among the states and just below the 20% national norm.
States with the highest share of investor-owned houses:
> Hawaii at 40%, Alaska at 35%, Vermont at 31%, West Virginia at 30%, and Wyoming at 30%.
States with the lowest are all in the Mid-Atlantic and lower New England:
> Connecticut at 10%, Rhode Island and Massachusetts at 12%, and Delaware at 13%.
Why so low in California (again, I'm baffled that this is "low")?
> the sky-high price tag for single-family homes, the third-highest nationally at $866,100

I think once they’re citizens, and id say generally foreign born retain the $origin-american but their kids don’t always. I don’t think you typing in “purely a matter of skin color” is writing angry posts into the void that have nothing to do with the OP.
The current discourse in this country centers around suspending habeas corpus to mass-deport millions of people. How do you know who's "illegal" without going through judicial process? You look at their race. And in the end, that's always what it's been about.
A majority of people own real estate, so they're happy with the status quo. Why would you put up with even the slightest personal inconvenience from added housing, if all it got you was a reduced value of your property?

My reference to number of generations centers around recent guidance from USCIS to de-naturalize citizens based on broadly defined criteria.

To save you a click, 19% is actually not a lot (I thought it was): > 19% of California houses were owned by investors, ranking No. 36 among the states and just below the 20% national norm.

Look at it in a historic or idealized context.
Personally I would say that is is a lot, and also too much - people tend to be less indifferent about things they own.
