We down-sized (house) by half and our yard by 3/4 at least and it's still too large. I remember when we felt we needed a large 2 story house with at least 4 bedrooms and 2 or 3 bathrooms...plus other criteria. As we age...we don't need as many "things" and having lots to take care of becomes more unmanageable, especially if we have physical issues. Having more "stuff" requires lots of maintenance and it's going to rust or burn eventually anyway.
