tiny houses
Very small residences
Tiny houses are very small dwellings, typically under 400 square feet, often built on trailers for mobility.
The term emerged from a movement promoting simplified living, lower costs, and reduced environmental impact: They sold their suburban home and moved into a tiny house.
The trend gained momentum in the 2010s as housing costs rose and minimalist lifestyles attracted interest.
