part of this has to do with the Motown PR dept. they were still building up the image of the Supremes in 65. the area of the homes was a very nice upper middle class area. pretty homes. so they were showing the girls moving into a respectable area AND moving their families with them. that was a big part of it.
so the girls were being depicted as thoughtful with their money, caring for their families. what good girls they are! and all picking homes on the same street just showed how much like sisters they really were
also it would have had to do some with what homes were for sale. even though motown's PR dept was savvy and very active, i doubt they would have knocked on people's door and offered to buy their homes, just for the sake of a good story lol. but who knows
it could also be possible that maybe 2 of the girls just happened to pick homes on the same street and then someone got the bright idea of 'hey wouldn't it make a great story..." and so the third girl was gently nudged. "hey if you're deciding between these two, pick this one because..."
