I’m in the U.K. but I’m inheriting land in St Elizabeth, Jamaica and I just wanted to know what an acre would look like. I found your video very clear, visually pleasing, to the point and informative. Thank you.

18 houses on an acre 😳. I am not sure why 1 acre in Canada always looks smaller than what I usually see in other countries !!

Thank you! I am dreaming of building a small cob house and veggie garden on my own land, and I think 1 acre would be lovely. Quite sizeable. More so than I thought!

Just FYI… you may not be able to “farm”… but you can grow more than enough on an acre!

I enjoy your content and I think you're providing a great service here. Some ideas (if you don't mind): Script your videos. Reading from a rehearsed script will help you get your speed up and improve the pacing of your videos. My guess is this video could have been half the time with the same amount of information and would have made for even more engaged viewing. But again, I'm thankful for what you're doing!

My father recently bought 15 acre of agriculture land in india and i want to know what is the price of one acre in your country? In my city one acre land cost around india rupees which changed 60000 Canadian dollars. I want to know did land measurements are same countrywise or it's changes?
