 * Corruption/hallow resistant materials include, for example: Wood, any kind of Ore, any kind of Bricks.
 * Make sure to build the wall a ways away from your house (if your house and wall can be seen on the same screen, they're probably too close together).
 * Reason: The corruption can still make your house unsuitable even if it's not touching your house . It just has to be close enough. For example, if you build your wall right up against your house, and the corruption is right outside the wall, your house will probably be unsuitable. So build the wall a ways out to give your house breathing room.
