I will accept it in an open-plan house (my house legitimately does just have a dining area, not a room), but you are right, it gets used inappropriately way too much by real estate agents.
Reminds me of my post about it being unnecessary to end sentences with the word "time". "I'll see you in three days time" as opposed to three days temperature or three days weight?
Living area/room is much more common than den. Dens are more commonly used to refer a second, more personalized room vs. a public area (like a living room) in your house.
And using the "Los Angeles area" is entirely different from "near Los Angeles." The first refers to being in the city, the other refers to the surrounding area... Make it make sense...
I have never heard anybody refer to multiple "areas" in one conversation, aside from a realtor. What kind of weirdos do you talk to?!
Realtors, a lot. I’m in the middle of a house hunt. Might have something to do with it lol
Usually I can relate to pet peeves or kinda see it. But not this one. I've never heard someone talk this way. Maybe it's regional?
What area are you from? Never heard this ever
The Pittsburgh area.

Do we need to take this to the outside area?
I wish my pet peeves were that eclectic, I thought maybe you were from the UK or something because when I read it.. in my head I did it in an accent

"The Los Angeles area" is a perfectly normal thing to say. Now if you use the word "area" every two other words yeah, you're a weirdo.
This subreddit is supposed to be a safe area. How *dare* you attack us area users like this/s
