How Long Would It Take a Millennial To Buy Archie Bunker's House Today?

"All in the Family" was filmed in California, but Archie Bunker's house was located at 704 Hauser Street in Astoria, Queens. Unfortunately, neither the street nor the interior of that house is real. That said, some of the exterior shots were done using an actual (and still standing) house in Queens. That house is located to the southeast at 89-70 Cooper Avenue in the Glendale neighborhood.
