While the full story is hidden behind a paywall, the picture you can see says it all: two identical twins found identical houses right next to each other.

I know very little about the twin literature but I wonder if anyone has made any connections regarding the housing choices of twins. The American Dream tends to promote individualism in consumption – even among mass market items – and a house that you buy is supposed to say something about you or be your face to your neighbors and the rest of the world. Do twins buck this trend?
