Some groups are really small, others have a constant turnout of about 20-30 people, only one meetup has had more than 100 people attend regularly. Over the past year, I haven't notice an increase in the number of attendees, but maybe there are more people joining these, and we don't notice because the number of groups has increased.
We did host a block party in September (free entry, about 300 people dropped by), and a halving party (ticketed, about 120 people joined)
The average housing price in the US is less than US$500k. And as we learn from the infographic above, the average house in the US is humongous.

In America most can afford a large house and car, but only the top 1% can afford to live in walking distance to a pub
Sounds like an awesome trip! One awesome memory I like to hold on to is when I took trains from Hong Kong to Berlin.
