10 Charming Homes in America's Heartland:
If you’re looking for a simpler setting, you may find your perfect home in the heartland.
Although the exact borders of America’s heartland are a little fuzzy, one thing’s for sure: The region boasts picturesque farms, rustic homes and simpler times. Middle America also has another big thing going for it: affordability. The median price of homes in the heartland are generally a fraction of what it would cost to live in a major city (San Francisco, we’re looking at you), and the ones we’ve found here are a steal even for the region.
But don’t let the low prices fool you; these aren’t fixer-uppers or eyesores. From a log cabin in rural Wisconsin to a 4-bedroom in Nebraska’s capital, these lovable abodes are move-in ready and Instagram-worthy.
