This is going on in a lot of towns, and while I certianly don't condone it, it's exactly why I don't think the OP will have a problem buying one of these McMansions. With virtually nowhere left to go and prices in the "A" towns still completely insane, the "B" towns are getting hit with McMansion syndrome pretty hard, and plenty more people are simply going to buy older house and tear them down to build McMansions.

Probably depends on the exact situation; for instance, there's houses like this on the golf course on Old Indian Road in W.O., and it wouldn't be a problem there. Of course if you go around sneering at your neighbors that you have a $800K house when they only have a $450K house, you're going to get what you give no matter where you are. And some of them will laugh at you because they're living in a million-plus actual mansion...
