Hippie Pig wouldn't even bother with a house -- he'd just live in a mud pit and bathe in patchouli.
Girly Pig gets the wood house because she's sensible.
Overdressed Pig would have the penthouse at the top of the brick house in the east 20s, because he has tons of money from working the stock market but has to pay women to have sex with him. (But then again, he gets to have sex with multiple women at the same time and do lines off of their breasts).
And no, you're not a yuppie -- the yuppies were a specific generation that cared more about their inherited money than their families, and they're all in their 50s now. Labelling people as yuppies just because they are in their 30s and have given up partying for responsibility is just as misguided as tossing around narrow gender labels. ;)
I guess labelling him Hippie Pig was a mistake. He's enviro pig. ENVIRO PIG!!! He's wearing a cool African shirt and a headband and going to a Green Party rally. He'd have on high-end sandals, but he has hooves. He has lots of money but spends it super-responsibly and gives most of it away. He probably lives in northern California somewhere.
BTW, Overdressed Pig looks like his momma dressed him. He's not wearing a suit or anything like Big Bad Wolf. I think it's Big Bad Wolf doing the lines and crap. Overdressed Pig aspires to be the Big Bad Wolf, but right now he's just dressed foofy.
I can't see hippy pig living alone in a big brick house. It seems more likely that he/she would be sleeping on one of the other pigs couches.
I also see Overdressed Pig in the brick house, mostly because in my experience lately the upper middle class is taking their standard wooden frame homes and covering them in brick to make them look like brick homes. Brick takes a lot of maintenance, especially on the east coast.

The really interesting thing, is the idea of which pig goes in the brick house, mostly because thats the pig you want to win, however really the moral of the story should be that once all the pigs live together they live happily ever after. Wolf be damned, its about communism. ------
And if our cars define our participant in the spectrum of socio-economics, then what does owning a 1973 MGB convertible that lives in my parents garage because I can't drive it and my wife is too scared to mean?
I think Granola pig should have the straw house, but the wolf doesn't blow it down, because a properly stuccoed straw house can stand up to all that huffing and puffing. Overdressed pig gets the brick house which will be so deteriorated from acid rain that it crumbles as soon as wolfie knocks at the door to deliver the foreclosure notice. Besides, in the REAL version of the story, two of the pigs get eaten anyway. I'd think girly pig and overdressed pig would make the better meals, having spent so much time on their own upkeep and all...

That, my friend, is the province of the Yuppie. Any Yuppie has long since left his Hippie days behind.

Or maybe it was the day you bought real estate.

And besides, that would make me a soccer mom, not a yuppie.

His shirt is made from recycled organic cotton. (Speaking of which, check out this site: http://www.katequinnorganics.com/. The colors are so nice.)
