temporary housing
Short-term living quarters
Temporary housing is shelter intended for short-term use rather than permanent residence.
It covers a range of situations: a hotel room while relocating, a rental during home renovations, or emergency shelter after a disaster.
The term often appears in contexts involving displacement: The agency provided temporary housing for flood victims.
It implies transition—somewhere to stay until more stable arrangements become available.
