I grew up in a mining town where there were just 5 or 6 different core designs for three and four bedroom houses, and a street was made up of those designs with minor variations like rotating it 90 degrees on the lot or mirroring the design.

If you weren't looking for it, that lack of variety was completely unnoticeable as you drove down the street.
