Tiny Houses

I got to read this rather long and fascinating article in the New Yorker Magazine while waiting 45 minutes at the doctor's office yesterday. The tiny house movement has it's coding and zoning challenges, and the groups that are taking to them most are older people who wish to downsize, those who have defaulted on mortgage, and the small footprint crowd.


My kid got to see one at his elementary school last year, the owner was able to bring her house over for a viewing.
