It wasn't all that opulent though. You got the impression that the big house was such to fit the needs of the whole large family rather than being an item of luxury for some rich guy with a little dick

They were living in one of the most affluent neighborhoods in the country but there was nothing excessively opulent about it. Could have been set in any number of generic suburbs across the northern states

Nah, this is only true on the coasts. Homes in Ohio or Wisconsin are cheap as shit. Proles in the far flung suburbs of Chicago can build cheap knock off homes similar to the home alone house. It's just a nearly 2hour commute downtown and with terrible build quality.

My aunt and uncle live in one of those burbs and they live in a 2500sqft house. He's a mechanic and she is a clerk at the grocery store.

He eventually got a divorce once the Mom found out that he was screwing his secretary.

He managed to make it thru the divorce with his shirt on his back, but that was until the dot.com bust tanked his shares in "Pets.com"

the big house was necessary for the plot. imagine little Kevin trying to battle and elude two burglars in a single-story three-bedroom 900-sf middle class shitbox with no basement. they would have murdered and raped him immediately and the movie would have been over in 20 minutes.

Seems like all the Jon Hughes movie families are affluent. This is really a common thing in teen movies; it's just that when everyone is ridiculously good-looking and goes to a perfect HS, you tend to notice the nice houses less.

Even Molly Ringwald in 16 candles had a nice as fuck house. By comparison, the "rich kid" Jake Ryan has a dad with an actual Rolls Royce

Do we know if Kevin’s parents paid for all the tickets? It was multiple families going so I’d assume the flight costs were split up. Also they are going to visit family there so no lodging costs.

Regarding the house, yeah it’s big, but we’re also talking about essentially the Midwest in the early 90s.
